Chapter 10, Problem 10.63AP

Interpretation Introduction

(a)

Interpretation:

The products of the illustrated compound with fumarase in ${\text{H}}_{\text{2}}\text{O}$ applying the principle of microscopic reversibility is to be predicted.

Concept introduction:

The principle of microscopic reversibility states that if a reaction taking place in multiple steps is considered to be happening in equilibrium then the rate of forward and backward reaction becomes equal. That means the same reactants will be produced if the reaction is reversed using the same products.
