2) onsider the reaction energy diagram below and answer the following questions. intermediates Potential Energy Yeactants B Reaction Coordinate a) How many elementary reaction steps are in this overall reaction? b) List below which species labeled above are intermediates. c) Which of the elementary reaction steps is rate-determining? E d) Is AE for the reaction favorable or unfavorable? If E.+135 kJ mol for the overall forward reaction and Ea +68 kJ mol¹ for the overall reverse reaction, what is AE for the overall reaction as written?
Catalysis and Enzymatic Reactions
Catalysis is the kind of chemical reaction in which the rate (speed) of a reaction is enhanced by the catalyst which is not consumed during the process of reaction and afterward it is removed when the catalyst is not used to make up the impurity in the product. The enzymatic reaction is the reaction that is catalyzed via enzymes.
Lock And Key Model
The lock-and-key model is used to describe the catalytic enzyme activity, based on the interaction between enzyme and substrate. This model considers the lock as an enzyme and the key as a substrate to explain this model. The concept of how a unique distinct key only can have the access to open a particular lock resembles how the specific substrate can only fit into the particular active site of the enzyme. This is significant in understanding the intermolecular interaction between proteins and plays a vital role in drug interaction.
