The given question is incomplete. The complete question is as follows.

The enzyme urease catalyzes the reaction of urea, (NH_2CONH_2), with water to produce carbon dioxide and ammonia. In water, without the enzyme, the reaction proceeds with a first-order rate constant of 4.15 \times 10^{-5} s^{-1} at 100^{o}C. In the presence of the enzyme in water, the reaction proceeds with a rate constant of 3.4 \times 10^{4} s^{-1} at 21^{o}C.  

If the rate of the catalyzed reaction were the same at 100^{o}C as it is at 21^{o}C, what would be the difference in the activation energy between the catalyzed and uncatalyzed reactions?

Express your answer using two significant figures.

Explanation:

The reaction equation is as follows.

       Urea + Water \rightarrow CO_{2} + NH_{3}

Hence, it is given that,

without enzyme: Rate = 4.15 \times 10^{-5} s^{-1} at 100^{o}C

with enzyme: Rate = 3.4 \times 10^{4} s^{-1} at 21^{o}C

                      Rate = 3.4 \times 10^{4} s^{-1} at 100^{o}C

It is known that,

       ln \frac{K_{2}}{K_{1}} = \frac{-E_{a}}{R}{\frac{1}{T_{2}} - \frac{1}{T_{1}}][/tex]

and,  ln K = \frac{-E_{a}}{RT} + ln A

Let us assume that collision factor (A) is same for both the reactions.

Hence,   \Delta E = RT ln (\frac{K_{with enzyme}}{K_{without enzyme}})

                         = 8.314 \times J/K mol \times (100 + 273) K \times ln (\frac{3.4 \times 10^{4}}{4.15 \times 10^{-5}})

                         = 63672.8 J/mol

                         = 63.67 kJ/mol      (as 1 kJ = 1000 J)

Thus, we can conclude that the difference in the activation energy between the catalyzed and uncatalyzed reactions is 63.67 kJ/mol.

Dr. House took two liquids of different densities (p_1=1500 kg/m^3; p_2 = 500 kg/m^3) are poured together into a 0.1 m^3 tank fi
SVETLANKA909090 [29]
We know that:
mass = density x volume
The volume of the total mixture is 0.1 m³
Let the first liquid be A and the second be B
Mass Total = Mass A + Mass B

800 x 0.1 = 1500Va + 500(0.1 - Va)
30 = 1000Va
Va = 0.03 m³
Vb = 0.1 - 0.03 = 0.07 m³
