Aim:
With the experiment of protein solution, in this case egg white added to different pepsin concentrations (0%, 0.2%, 0.4%, 0.6%, 0.8%, 1.0%) shows, as the egg white is a protein and the pepsin works as an enzyme, how a higher pepsin concentration and therefore a larger amount of enzymes effect the rate of reaction.
Hypothesis:
An increased concentration of pepsin speeds up the time the mixture needs to come clear.
Introduction:
The egg white is our protein solution, because egg white is a typical protein with peptide bonds between its amino acids that can be broken by pepsin, a metabolism enzyme that works best under a pH between 1 and 5, and is destroyed at a pH of 6. Enzymes …show more content…
