Question
Hydrogen peroxide decomposes spontaneously to yield water and oxygen gas according to the reaction equation
2H,0, аq) — 2H,00) + 0,(9)
The activation energy for this reaction is 75 kJ•mol-. The enzyme catalase, found in blood, lowers the activation energy
to 8.0 kJ-mol-I
At what temperature would the non-catalyzed reaction need to be run to have a rate equal to that of the enzyme-catalyzed
reaction at 25 °C?
T =
K
