The conversion of dissolved carbon dioxide in blood to HCO3- and H3O+ is catalyzed by the enzyme carbonic anhydrase. The Michaelis–Menten constants for this enzyme and substrate are Km = 8 × 10-5 mol L-1 andk2=6 × 105 s-1.

Peroxynitric acid (HOONO2) is an unstable molecule that decomposes to nitric acid and oxygen: 2HOONO2(aq) → 2HNO3(aq) + O2(g)When the concentration of peroxynitic acid is graphed against time, the resulting plot is curved, but if the logarithm of this concentration is plotted, we instead get a straight line. Based on this, which statement is true? a) This decay is a second order in peroxynitric acid. b) The slope of the straight-line graph is the rate constant. c) One needs the concentration of peroxynitric acid to calculate its half-life. d) The rate law appears to be of the form -Δ[HOONO2]/Δt = k[HOONO2].

A particular reactant molecule "R" is capable of undergoing condensation and forming either a single closed loop (R-> L) or long chain polymer (R+R+R ->P). The rate law for the loop forming reaction is rate(loop) = kLoop[R]; the rate lw for the polymerization reaction is rate(poly) = kpoly[R]^2 a) a beaker with a starting concentration of R equals 0.50M at 60degrees. After 75 minutes of reacting, the concentration of L is 0.10M. Assuming no change in volume or temperature, find k(loop) b. At the 75 minute mark the remaing concentration of R is 0.398M. What can you conclude (qualitatively) about the magnitude of k(poly) relative to k(loop)?

The gas-phase reaction of NONO with F2F2 to form NOFNOF and FF has an activation energy of EaEaEa = 6.30 kJ/molkJ/mol and a frequency factor of AAA1 = 6.00×108 M−1⋅s−1M−1⋅s−1 . The reaction is believed to be bimolecular: NO(g)+F2(g)→NOF(g)+F(g)NO(g)+F2(g)→NOF(g)+F(g) where NONO is a free radical. Free radicals, species with an odd number of unbound electrons, tend to be more reactive. This is one reason by NONO reacts so readily with gases such as fluorine or oxygen gas A. What is the rate constant at 515 ∘C∘C ? B. Draw the Lewis structure for NONO. C. Draw the Lewis structure for NOFNOF. Nitrogen is the central atom.
