What is the effect of temperature on the rate of diastase reaction?
The effect of temperature on the rate of diastase reaction is that it acts as a catalyst. Higher temperatures will speed up the reaction.
What does the presence of an enzyme cause?
Enzymes are biological catalysts which cause the rate of a reaction to increase (by providing an alternate reaction pathway with a lower activation enthalpy). They are very specific to the reaction they catalyse.
Enzymes are a type of protein that aid in what?
Enzymes are biological catalysts. This means that they speed up a reaction. How do they do that? By lowering the activation energy needed to start the initial reaction.
How does temperature in a luminol reaction affect light produced?
If the temperature of the glow stick (chemiluminescence) is warmer, it releases a brighter glow and has a shorter reaction time. If the temperature of the glow stick is colder, it releases a dimmer glow but has a longer reaction time. Lower temperatures slow reaction rates and release less light intensity then higher temperatures.
What type of molecule is made from amino acids and acts as a biological catalyst?
Molecules that act as catalysts in biological systems are enzymes. Enzyme catalyze chemical reactions by lowering the activation energy.
How do you speed up a reaction?
Most effective: increase temperature and/or add a suitable catalyst (enzymes for biological reactions).
What is the significance of rate constant?
A coefficient of proportionality relating the rate of a chemical reaction at a given temperature to the concentration of reactant (in a unimolecular reaction) or to the product of the concentrations of reactants.
What is the significance of thermostable polymerase in DNA technology?
It is used in Polymerase Chain Reaction (PCR), which embrace temperature of 94°C - the polymerase has to be able to sustain such temperature.
Is dehydrogenation reaction a biological oxidation?
Biological oxidations are dehydrogenation reactions.
When an enzyme affects a chemical reaction it its acting as a biological?
It is acting as a biological catalyst.
What does a biological catalyst do?
they speed up a reaction
What is the function of enzymes in biological reaction?
It acts as an catalyst and activate the rate of reaction.
What is the products of a chemical reaction?
is a substance that forms as a result of a biological- or chemical reaction
What temperature is the reaction at equilibrium?
The temperature will depend on the reaction that is under consideration.
How is the rate of reaction affected when the temperature increases?
As the temperature increases, the reaction time decreases.
What speeds up biological chemical reaction?
enzyme
What type of weathering involves the reaction of material with natural or biological chemicals?
both chemical and biological weathering
