Affinity decreases as the enzyme's geometry is modified by being denatured. It will no longer properly fit the active site.

What is the correct grammar when using affinity affinity to or affinity for?

Heigh ho. A generation ago, both were wrong, because back then the word was not a synonym for a tendency to something or a talent for it. Affinity meant natural personal attraction or relation by marriage, and so its preposition was usually "with" or "between."We now may have an affinity for something we do well or like, and an affinity with something that is like us.


What is the difference between electron affinity and electron gain enthalpy?

electron affinity is the negative of electron gain enthalpy. for example, the electron gain enthalpy of fluorine is -328, and electron affinity is 328 which is -(-328)

How does enzymes become denatured?

An enzyme becomes denatured when: A) the temperature exceeds the optimum temperature for that enzyme (ie the temperature that it works best at) B) the pH of the surrounding of the enzyme is too low or too high for the optimum pH for that enzyme. When enzymes are heated up too much they vibrate so vigorously that the bonds holding the protein structure in its specific shape becomes broken. The enzyme shape changes and the substrate no longer fits in to the active site. An enzyme which has become denatured is permanently inactive and will take no further part in reactions.
