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 p…
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 dist…

Chapter 17, Problem 17.27P

Low-molecular-weight dicarboxylic acids normally exhibit two different pKa values. Ionization of the first carboxyl group is easier than the second. This effect diminishes with molecular size, and for adipic acid and longer chain dicarboxylic acids, the two acid ionization constants differ by about one pK unit.

Chapter 17, Problem 17.27P, Low-molecular-weight dicarboxylic acids normally exhibit two different pKa values. Ionization of the

Why do the two pKa values differ more for the shorter chain dicarboxylic acids than for the longer chain dicarboxylic acids?
