the model-predicted fit and clearly identify the three sets of rate equation parameters along with the
regression statistics
b. Using the above three sets of rate equation parameters, generate predicted values for ) vs Cs from
Cs-0 to Cs-1.40 using a spacing of ACs-0.02. Compare the -S Cs data (solid points) with the
predicted values using the rate equations parameters identified in step 2. (Lineweaver-Burke - solid line;
Eadie-Hofstee-dashed line, and Hanes-Woolf- dotted line). Make sure to include a plot legend.
e. Comment on the fit of the M-M curves from the estimates of kinetic parameters made in Part (a).

- Q3. Péclet number – We've seen the Péclet number Pé = vl as a useful metric to D determine if stirring (Pé > 1) is more efficient than diffusion (Pé < 1) for mixing solutions. "Stirring" here can designate any process which applies a force on the molecules, resulting in a velocity v. a) Show that the Péclet number, like the Reynolds number, is unitless. Let's think about why scale (f) matters for mixing. 1-DNA, a DNA polymer containing 48,502 base pairs, has a diffusion coefficient of D = field of 1 V/m, we can expect 1-DNA to reach a terminal velocity of 30 nm/s. 6.4 x 10-13m²s=1.
