Answer:
27 min
Explanation:
The kinetics of an enzyme-catalyzed reaction can be determined by the equation of Michaelis-Menten:
![v = \frac{vmax[S]}{Km + [S]}](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=v%20%3D%20%5Cfrac%7Bvmax%5BS%5D%7D%7BKm%20%2B%20%5BS%5D%7D)
Where v is the velocity in the equilibrium, vmax is the maximum velocity of the reaction (which is directed proportionally of the amount of the enzyme), Km is the equilibrium constant and [S] is the concentration of the substrate.
So, initially, the velocity of the formation of the substrate is 12μmol/9min = 1.33 μmol/min
If Km is a thousand times smaller then [S], then
v = vmax[S]/[S]
v = vmax
vmax = 1.33 μmol/min
For the new experiment, with one-third of the enzyme, the maximum velocity must be one third too, so:
vmax = 1.33/3 = 0.443 μmol/min
Km will still be much smaller then [S], so
v = vmax
v = 0.443 μmol/min
For 12 μmol formed:
0.443 = 12/t
t = 12/0.443
t = 27 min
The people of Finland, who are secluded to some degree from the rest of the world by water, develop certain diseases due to the lack of genetic material from other ethnicities and races.
Physical barriers prevent fish from one stream from mating with fish from another stream, leading to a less varied gene pool among those fish. As time passes, the fish become unable to successfully mate with other groups.
A mountain range prevents two types of goat from mating, causing the gene pool to become less varied.<span>

Not a well worded question since it's assuming I know the reactions. But I'll assume that since there's just 1 atom of copper per molecule of Cu(NO3)2, that the reaction will result in 1 atom of copper per molecule of Cu(NO3)2 used. With that in mind, we will have 0.010 l * 0.75 mol/l = 0.0075 moles of copper produced.
To convert the amount in moles, multiply by the atomic weight of copper, which is 63.546 g/mol. So
0.0075 mol * 63.546 g/mol = 0.476595 g.
Round the results to 2 significant figures, giving 0.48 grams.</span>
