What relationship exists between an enzyme and a catalyst?

Chemistry

shepuryov [24]2 years ago

A catalyst is a chemical that increases the rate of a chemical reaction without itself being changed by the reaction. The fact that they aren't changed by participating in a reaction distinguishes catalysts from substrates, which are the reactants on which catalysts work. Enzymes catalyze biochemical reactions.

Answer:

Relationship between the catalyst and enzyme:

Catalyst may be defined as the substance that can increase the rate of the chemical reaction. Catalyst do not change itself in the reaction. In the same way enzymes are bio catalyst that are used to increase the rate of the biochemical reaction.  

The enzymes are generally made up of protein but it is not necessary that the catalyst is made of the protein. All enzymes can work acts as catalyst but all catalyst are not enzymes.

Determine the mass of SO₂ that contains 6.075 × 10^26 S atoms.​
Misha Larkins [42]

Avogadro's law states that in a mole of any substance, there are 6.022 \times 10^{23} atoms. This means that in the given sample, there are

\frac{6.075 \times 10^{26}}{6.022 \times 10^{23}}=1008.8010627 \text{ mol}

  • The atomic mass of sulfur is 32.06 amu.
  • The atomic mass of oxygen is 15.9994 amu.

So, the atomic mass of sulfur dioxide is

32.06+2(15.9994=64.0588 \text{ g/mol}

Therefore, the mass is:

(64.0588)(1008.8010627)=\boxed{64620 \text{ g (to 4 sf)}}

In glycolysis, if glucose is labeled at the carbon 6 position (see page 1 for numbering of carbons in glucose) A) the carbon wit
Oliga [24]

Answer:

D) the carbon with the low-energy phosphate on it in 1,3 BPG is labeled.

Explanation:

Glycolysis has 2 phase (1) preparatory phase (2) pay-off phase.

<u>(1) Preparatory phase</u>

During preparatory phase glucose is converted into fructose-1,6-bisphosphate. Till this time the carbon numbering remains the same i.e. if we will label carbon at 6th position of glucose, its position will remian the same in fructose-1,6-bisphosphate that means the labeled carbon will still remain at 6th position.

When fructose-1,6-bisphosphate is further catalyzed with the help of enzyme aldolase it is cleaved into two 3 carbon intermediates which are glyceraldehyde 3-phosphate (GAP) and dihyroxyacetone  phosphate (DHAP).  In this conversion, the first three carbons of fructose-1,6-bisphosphate become carbons of DHAP while the last three carbons of fructose-1,6-bisphosphate will become carbons of GAP. It simply means that GAP will acquire the last carbon of fructose-1,6-bisphosphate which is labeled. Now the last carbon of GAP which has phosphate will be labeled.  

<u>(2) Pay-off phase</u>

During this phase, GAP is dehydrogenated into 1,3-bisphosphoglycerate (BPG) with the help of enzyme glyceraldehyde 3-phosphate dehydrogenase. This oxidation is coupled to phosphorylation of C1 of GAP and this is the reason why 1,3-bisphosphoglycerate has phosphates at 2 positions i.e. at position 1 in which phosphate is newly added and position 3rd which already had labeled carbon.

It is pertinent to mention here that<u> BPG has a mixed anhydride and the bond at C1 is a very high energy bond.</u> In the next step, this high energy bond is hydrolyzed into a carboxylic acid with the help of enzyme phosphoglycerate kinase and the final product is 3-phosphoglycerate. Hence, the carbon with low energy phosphate i.e. the carbon at 3rd position remains labeled.
