The optimal temperature for an enzyme is the one at which the enzyme is the most active and productive.

At temperatures below the optimum temperature, the enzyme still catalyzes the reactions, but with decreased activity.

Even though the temperature increase increases the activity of the enzymes, temperatures that are greater than the optimum cause damage the enzyme strucutre, causing denaturation and loss of function

Answer:

The enzyme will denature.

Explanation:

Enzymes are defined as bio catalyst that can increase the rate of a biochemical reaction occurring in the living organisms. Enzymes increases the effective collision between the reactants.

Enzymes works at optimum temperature and pH. The enzyme gets denatured and loses its biological activity if temperature varies too far. The enzyme structure will distort due to high temperature. Most of the enzymes are made up of proteins. High temperature can destroy the folded structure and the shape of the enzyme.

Answer:

The answer is explained below

Explanation:

If you add dilute HCl (Hydrochloric Acid) to the solution, and you see fizzing, then it is the carbonate. I would recommend doing this under a fume hood, as HCl has a wicked smell, and can make a few people sick to their stomach (however, you probably won't be using 12M concentrated HCl)
