Question

Plot absorption versus time using the graph label mAbs vs time(s) from 0 to 120 s in 10-s intervals. Plot a line that can be used to calculate the initial rate using the graph label Initial Rate.

In your first kinetic experiment, you decide to assess the enzyme's ability to hydrolyze the 8-lactam amoxicillin.
The hydrolysis of amoxicillin can be observed directly by following the change in absorbance at 240 nm. Kinetic assays are performed at 30 °C in a buffer of 100 µM sodium phosphate (pH 7.0). Starting with 50
µM amoxicillin, you measure the absorbance at 240 nm every 10 s for two minutes and obtain the following values:

Given the data for amoxicillin, plot absorbance versus time (mAbs vs time (s)) for an initial concentration of 50 µM. Then, add a line that can be used to calculate the initial rate of the reaction (Initial Rate).
