Alternative To Practical Sheet - 3

A student investigates the effectiveness of using an enzyme in extracting apple juice by adding enzyme solution to beaker A and water to beaker B (the control) and collecting the volumes of juice over 10 minutes. The results are recorded in a table and graph, showing that beaker A with the enzyme extracted more juice over time. Enzymes provide an advantage to fruit juice manufacturers by aiding in more efficient juice extraction.

ALTERNATIVE TO PRACTICAL SHEET – 3 (Pages – 2)

Name: _____________________________ Roll No. ______ Date: _______

1. A student investigates the effectiveness of using an enzyme in the extraction of apple juice.
He has two beakers of apple pulp warmed to a temperature of 35 °C.
• He adds 2 cm3 of enzyme solution to beaker A and 2 cm3 of distilled water to beaker B
and mixes the contents of each beaker.
• He returns the beakers to the water-bath and immediately starts a stopclock.
• After five minutes he empties the contents of both beakers into separate filter funnels as
shown in Fig.
• He records in Table the volume of the juice collected in each measuring cylinder every 2
minutes for a total of 10 minutes.

(a) Insert headings, including units, in Table

(b) Fig. shows the volume of juice in measuring cylinders A and B after 6 minutes. Read these
volumes and enter the values in Table

(c) On the grid provided, plot a graph of the results in measuring cylinder A only (vertical axis) against
the values in column one of Table . Draw the best-fit line.

(d) Enzymes are used for juice extraction in the fruit juice industry. Use the results to suggest an
advantage to manufacturers in using an enzyme in the production of fruit juice.

(e) Explain how beaker B acts as a control.
