Write the simple equation that describes the action of the enzyme catalase.
1 answer:
Here we have to write a simple equation which describes the action of the enzyme catalase.
The equation is: The concentration of the complex [ES] =
Let us consider an enzyme catalyses reaction E + S ⇄ ES → E + P
Where E, S, ES and P are enzyme, substrate, complex and product respectively.
The concentration of the complex [ES] = , where
is the Michaelis constant.
[E]₀ and [S] is the initial concentration of enzyme and concentration of substrate respectively.

Among BF₃, NF₃, OH⁻ and ALCl₃ both NF₃ and OH⁻ acts as a lewis base.
Explaination:
According to lewis theory of acid and base, base is a specie which has either lone pair of electrons or is negatively charged. So, in the given compounds Nitrogen trifluoride contain lone pair of electron on nitrogen and Hydroxide contains a negative charge on oxygen. And botha are capable to donate these electrons to a lewis acid (electrophiles).
