Catalysts
speed up the rate of the reaction.
lowers the energy input required for a
chemical reaction to happen
remains unchanged at the end of the
reaction
skool
Enzymes
 Enzymes are Biological catalysts
Enzymes control chemical reactions
that take place in the cytoplasm.

Catalase in an example of an enzyme
made by living cells
Catalase
 The enzyme catalase breaks down
the waste substance hydrogen
peroxide into water and oxygen.

Enzyme activity
Temperature and pH affect the activity
of an enzyme.

Enzymes function best or are most active
in specific conditions known as optimum
conditions.

Properties of enzymes
Speed up reactions.
Made of protein.
Are specific.
Not used up during the reaction.
Require optimum conditions at which
they work best.
At high temperature they become
denatured
