Expert Solution
Step 1: Define km and Vmax

Km and Vmax are kinetic constants that help to determine the efficiency of an enzyme.

Km is equal to [S] at Vmax/2 

At Vo=Vmax/2, 

Km=[S] 

Vmax is the maximum velocity with which the enzyme can catalyse the reaction.

Km and Vmax can be determined accurately by using lb plot. MM plot can also be used to determine the km and Vmax but the result is not as accurate as in lb plot.
