Investigating the effect of enzyme concentration on the initial rate of reaction
Hydrogen peroxide is broken down into water and oxygen by the enzyme catalyse. Measure how much oxygen is given off with different concentrations of the enzyme. Measure the amount of oxygen given off in the first minute of the reaction. Then divide the volume of oxygen produced by the time, to get the initial rate of reaction. The more oxygen that is given off in the first minute of the reaction, the faster the initial rate of reaction.
