In our experiment we predicted that if we added more of the enzyme extract, than the amount of light absorbed would increase. The average of trial 1 for our experiment was 0.938a which is 0.442a more than trial 1 from the original experiment. The average of trial 2 was 1.343a which is 0.493a more than trial 2 from the original experiment. The average of trial 3 was 0.963 which was 0.871 more than the original experiment. With this information it proves that our hypothesis was correct.
Questions for discussion:
What would have happened if we timed the Spectrophotometer for 10 minutes instead of 5? Would the amount of absorbancy continue to increase or would it level out after a certain amount of time?
Does the level of absorbancy directly relate to the amount of enzyme in the tube?
Why does the solution turn orange?
Did the data results prove or disprove our hypothesis?
What could you have changed in the lab other than the amount of enzyme in the test tube?
