An enzyme can catalyze a reaction with either of two substrates, S1 or S2. The Km for S1 was found to be 2.0 mM, and the Km, for

S2 was found to be 20 mM. A student determined that the Vmax was the same for the two substrates. Unfortunately, he lost the page of his notebook and needed to know the value of Vmax. He carried out two reactions: one with 0.1 mM S1, the other with 0.1 mM S2. Unfortunately, he forgot to label which reaction tube contained which substrate. Determine the value of Vmax from the results he obtained:
Tube number: 1
Rate of formation of product:0.5
Tube number: 2
Rate of formation of product: 4.8

Answer:

100.5 ≈ 101

Explanation:

Km for S1 = 2.0 mM

Km for S2 = 20 mM

Given that : S1 = S2 =  hence Vmax for either S1 or S2 can represent

The Vmax can be calculated using the data Given and equation below

Vo = Vmax [s] / ( Km + [s] )  ------ (1)

Vo = 0.5

[s] = 0.1 mM

km = 20 mM

making Vmax subject of  equation 1

Vmax = 0.5 ( 20.1 mM) / (0.1 mM )

         = 100.5 ≈ 101

The decomposition of copper(II) nitrate on heating is endothermic reaction. 2Cu(NO3)2(s) → 2C10(s) + 4NO2(g) + O2(g) Calculate t
Basile [38]

Answer:

The enthalpy change for the given reaction is 424 kJ.

Explanation:

2Cu(NO_3)_2(s)\rightarrow 2CuO(s) + 4NO_2(g) + O_2(g),\Delta H_{rxn}=?

We have :

Enthalpy changes of formation of following s:

\Delta H_{f,Cu(NO_3)_2}=-302.9 kJ/mol

\Delta H_{f,CuO}=-157.3 kJ/mol

\Delta H_{f,NO_2}= 33.2 kJ/mol

\Delta H_{f,O_2}= 0 kJ/mol (standard state)

\Delta H_{rxn}=\sum [\Delta H_f(product)]-\sum [\Delta H_f(reactant)]

The equation for the enthalpy change of the given reaction is:

\Delta H_{rxn} =

=(2 mol\times \Delta H_{f,CuO}+4\times \Delta H_{f,NO_2}+1 mol\times \Delta H_{f,O_2})-(2mol\times \Delta H_{f,Cu(NO_3)_2})

\Delta H_{rxn}=

(2mol\times (-157.3 kJ/mol)+4\times 33.2 kJ/mol=1 mol\times 0 kJ/mol)-(2 mol\times (-302.9 kJ/mol)

\Delta H_{rxn}=424 kJ

The enthalpy change for the given reaction is 424 kJ.
