Answer:
27 min
Explanation:
The kinetics of an enzyme-catalyzed reaction can be determined by the equation of Michaelis-Menten:
![v = \frac{vmax[S]}{Km + [S]}](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=v%20%3D%20%5Cfrac%7Bvmax%5BS%5D%7D%7BKm%20%2B%20%5BS%5D%7D)
Where v is the velocity in the equilibrium, vmax is the maximum velocity of the reaction (which is directed proportionally of the amount of the enzyme), Km is the equilibrium constant and [S] is the concentration of the substrate.
So, initially, the velocity of the formation of the substrate is 12μmol/9min = 1.33 μmol/min
If Km is a thousand times smaller then [S], then
v = vmax[S]/[S]
v = vmax
vmax = 1.33 μmol/min
For the new experiment, with one-third of the enzyme, the maximum velocity must be one third too, so:
vmax = 1.33/3 = 0.443 μmol/min
Km will still be much smaller then [S], so
v = vmax
v = 0.443 μmol/min
For 12 μmol formed:
0.443 = 12/t
t = 12/0.443
t = 27 min
C. Also just look up a chemical equation balancer calculator next time.
The correct option is B. To increase the production of ammonia, you have to increase the pressure of the system. Increase in pressure will result in increased production of ammonia because this will drive the chemical reaction forward.
It is soluble in water and slightly soluble in ethanol.
The answer is lower. when there’s a lower temperature the molecules will be moving at a lower speed. a lower speed means less thermal energy.
