Q

Hydrogen carbonate soloution in different concentrations of co2

A

An indicator to measure levels of co2
Red in equilibrium with atmospheric air
More orange/ yellow with increased co2 levels
Changes red through magenta to deep purple as carbon dioxide is removed

Q

investigating effect of temperature in yeast

A

Variable we will change (independent) water bath temperature
Variable we will measure (dependent) volume of carbon dioxide released
Control variables: volume of yeast solution
Time we leave solution for

Q

Method

A

Collect 10 ml yeast solution in boiling tube
Put this in water bath- leave for 3-5 mins to acclimatise
Half fill tub of water and fully fill measuring cylinder, hand over top of cylinder and stand it upside down in tub so still full of water
Place bung end of delivery tube in boiling tube
Place end of delivery tube in water measuring cylinder and record how much co2 is made every 1 min
Repeat
