What is reaction time, why do we measure it? How is it calculated?
Step by step
Solved in 3 steps
- Is the dependent variable the reaction time? And what is the controlled variables in this experiment and are there any controls that are used in this experiment?What are the rate constants for the enzyme-catalyzed reaction?Are these correct? And what category would the last reaction belong to and why? Thank you!
