Answer:
Explanation:
If the enzyme active site is complementary to the substrate conformation rather than to the transition state, it is unlikely that the reaction will proceed and release a product, because the enzyme-substrate complex will be tightly bound (ΔG will raise).
On the other hand, when the enzyme active site is complementary to the transition state, the substrate will not be tightly bound and will be more prone to be transformed into the product (<u>ΔG will be lowered</u>) and afterward, be released.
The weak interactions (non-covalent bonds) will stabilize the energy of the transition state and reduce its energy, thus lowering the activation energy). If the transition state is stable, it will form more easily and<u> the reaction will be more likely to proceed.</u>

Nascent oxygen has much higher reactivity than the oxygen bubbled through the reaction mixture. It doesn't stay nascent for long (you are right about it being converted quick to just O2), which is why it has to be generated in situ
It seems that you have missed the necessary table for us to answer this question, so I had to look for it. Anyway, here is the answer. <span>Based on Table S, an atom of the element POLONIUM has the weakest attraction for electrons in a chemical bond. Hope this answers your question.</span>
