Chapter 6, Problem 12P

(a)

Summary Introduction

To determine: The total enzyme [Et] that was used in experiment.

Introduction:

Enzyme is defined as a biological catalyst that speeds up the rate of chemical reaction. All biological reactions are catalyzed by enzymes. Every enzyme has active site at which a substrate binds and the substrate is then converted into product.

(b)

Summary Introduction

To determine: The value of [X]used in experiment.

Introduction:

Enzyme contains an active site which is a region of enzyme where substrate binds. After binding of enzyme with substrate, an enzyme-substrate complex is formed and initiates the rate of chemical reaction.

(c)

Summary Introduction

To determine: The value of [X]in the presence of inhibitor

Introduction:

Inhibitors are the chemical molecules that inhibit the activity of enzyme by binding either at active site of enzyme or region other than the active site. It prevents the binding of substrate by changing the shape and conformation of enzyme.

(d)

Summary Introduction

To explain: This enzyme is evolved to achieve catalytic perfection.

Introduction:

Enzyme kinetics is defined as the study of chemical reactions which is catalyzed by enzyme. It indicates a rate of reaction as a function of substrate concentration with Vmax and Km of enzyme.

3. Dry air is inhaled at a rate of 10 liter/min through a trachea with a diameter of 20 mm and a length of 125 mm. The inner surface of the trachea is at a normal body temperature of 37°C and may be assumed to be saturated with water. a. Assuming steady, fully developed flow in the trachea, estimate the mass transfer convection coefficient. b. Estimate the daily water loss (liter/day) associated with evaporation in the trachea.
1. Conceptual questions a. What dimensionless group describes the relative importance of convection versus diffusion. Explain the physical basis of this group. b. For mass transfer from a flowing fluid to a reactive surface, explain how convection increases the flux of solute to the surface.
