Put water into the measuring cylinder and then place it face down in a
container full of water and then record the making that the water gets to.
Measure out 0.1 grams of yeast cells on the scale and using a pipette
measure 2cm³ hydroxide into a test tube
This is done under room temperature and at the time that I carried this
experiment out it was 24°C
Connect the delivery tube to the measuring cylinder that is filled with
water
Add the weighed yeast into the test tube containing the hydrogen
peroxide and quickly bung the test tube at the same time using a stop
watch record the amount of gas that is released within 30 seconds.
Measure the new level at which the water is at and then take this value
from the original water level to know the amount of oxygen that is
produced
Record the results into a table and then repeat the experiment twice with
the same temperature
Repeat this experiment three time with all the other temperatures

Table 2:
Table for the rates of reactions for all the different
temperatures used to carry out the experiment. Formula to work
out the rate of reaction= (Volume of O₂ produced) ÷ (time) this
was for 30 seconds. These are for all the repeats.

Graph 1: this is the graph for the temperatures plotted against their rate of
reactions. The scale for the temperature =1-13. 1 represents 1 then from there
all the other values represent a number n*6. E.g. 4 is =24
