In class on Friday we talked about the Enzyme Lab that we were going to begin that day. We discussed that the beaker of water that served as the "water bath" had to stay at the temperature you were given and it was supose to be like a practice test just to observe what happens. Afterwards we did the trial with the assigned temperature we were given which was either 0, 15, 22, 37, 55, 0r 100 degrees Celsius. My group was assigned 15 degrees Celsius, and we were also suppose to do the trial a multiple number of times and then record our data.

Also in class Ms. Stein showed us an example of the lab we did. She poured hydrogen peroxide in a graduated cylinder and then added potassium iodine to cause close to the same reaction as our lab. It was really cool to see because the hydrogen reacted so furiously to the potassium that it overflowed an extreme amount into the plastic bin it was in.
