What is the Michaelis-Menten equation used for?
Consider the role of the substrate in enzyme activity.
What is homogeneous catalysis?
Think about the phase of interaction between catalyst and reactants.
What does the Michaelis-Menten equation describe?
Think about what parameters are involved in enzyme activity.
True or False: Heterogeneous catalysis involves the catalyst being in a different phase than the reactants.
Consider the typical phases of catalyst and reactants in these processes.
Given an enzyme with Km of 1 mM and Vmax of 100 µM/s, calculate the initial reaction rate at a substrate concentration of 500 µM.
Remember to convert units to be consistent.
A reaction exhibits zero-order kinetics with a rate constant of 0.1 M/s. If the initial concentration is 2 M, how long until the concentration drops to 1 M?
Focus on how time relates to concentration changes.
