Enzymes make biochemical reactions go much faster - the rate is a million to a billion times enhanced.
What else can I help you with?
What do enzymes act as in order to alter the rate of a reaction without being changed by the reaction?
They act as a catalyst.
How do enzymes alter the equilibrium of a chemical reaction?
Enzymes alter the equilibrium of a chemical reaction by lowering the activation energy required for the reaction to occur, thus speeding up the rate at which the reaction reaches equilibrium. This is achieved by stabilizing the transition state of the reaction, making it easier for the reactants to form products.
How does the amount of enzymes ect the reaction rate?
the more enzymes, the faster the reaction
What aspect of chemical reaction is affected by enzymes?
The reaction rate is affected by enzymes.
What can alter the activation energy if a reaction?
A catalyst alter rate of reaction by lowering the activation
What can change the rate of reaction of enzymes?
Heat can change the rate of reaction
Is enzymes slow the rate of reaction?
Actually, enzymes are typically used to catalyse a biological reaction, leading to a faster reaction rate, not slower.
Why heating enzymes usually produces a faster rate of reaction?
Why heating enzymes usually produces a faster rate of reaction?
What do enzymes change about a chemical reaction?
The Reaction Rate
How might altering the pH affect the rate of the reaction?
Altering the pH might cause the enzymes involved in a reaction to be denatured. When enzymes are denatured, they do not function properly and the rate of the reaction either slows down or completely stops.
How do enzymes alter the rate of biochemical reactions?
Enzymes lower the activation energy barrier, making it easier for substrates to form products. They do this by providing an alternative pathway for the reaction to occur more quickly. This leads to an increase in the rate of the biochemical reaction.
What do enzymes do to the chemicals involved in the reaction?
Enzymes are biocatalysts, they accelerate the reaction rate. Different individual enzymes operate by different mechanisms.
