Enzymes are remarkably efficient catalysts that can increase reaction rates by as many as 20 orders of magnitude.(a) How does an enzyme affect the transition state of a reac-tion, and how does this effect increase the reaction rate?(b) What characteristics of enzymes give them this tremendous effectiveness as catalysts?
In a multi-step reaction pathway, the
step is the rate-limiting step.
(A)
(B)
Fastest
Slowest
True or false: When the temperature of an exothermicreaction increases, the rate constant of the forward reactiondecreases, which leads to a decrease in the equilibriumconstant, Kc.
