Detergent and JELL-O™ Lab• Some detergents contain enzymes
• Catalyze the digestion of protein based stains
• JELL-O™ is held together by the protein gelatin
Tested hypotheses:
• Enzyme will increase reaction rates
• Increased temperature will increase reaction rate
Transfer task
• What effect would changing the pH have on the reaction?
