Increased enzymes would increase the rate of the reaction up to a certain point. They would reach a point where there are no more reactions to help out.

How does the concentration of an oxidizing agent affect a redox reaction?

The higher the concentration of the oxidizing agent, the faster the oxidation rate, and the faster the reaction rate will be, and vice versa.


Will adding more acid make a reaction faster?

If you add a higher concentration of acid, or increase the temperature, the reaction will go faster.


What is the effect of reactant concentration?

Generally, the higher the concentrations the faster the reaction. It does not push the reaction further past the equilibrium.


Is it true that a low concentration of a chemical slows reaction rate?

I would point your studies towards collision theory. It's not that a low concentration necessarily slows down a reaction, but that a low concentration will have a slower reaction rate than a higher concentration of reactants. A lower concentration means a lower number of reactants in solution, meaning it is less likely for the reactants to collide and create products. With a lot of reactants, it is much more likely for collisions to occur.


How are the concentration of the reactants and reaction rate related?

rate laws a+the higher the concentration = more particles = higher chance of a collision happening = higher/faster reaction rate


What factors may influence the speed at which enzymes function?

Temperature is definitely one. USUALLY, the higher the temperature, the faster the reaction.


What are things that can affect the speed of a chemical reaction?

Some different things that could speed/slow up/down a chemical reaction are: Temperature (If higher, molecules move faster, reactions speeds up) SPEED UP Temperature (If lower, molecules will move slower, reaction slower) SLOW DOWN CATALYST (A catalyst is anything that SPEEDS up a reaction without being consumed[running out of energy]) SPEED UP Concentration More substrates [reactants/puzzle pieces to enzymes faster reaction)SPEED UP Concentration (Less substrates- slower reaction) SLOW DOWN ...well, there you go... :)


How is the enzyme affected during the catalyzed reaction?

The higher the substrate concentration, the higher the rate of reaction, up till the point when the limiting factor is no longer the concentration of substrate but other factors like enzyme concentration of temperature.


What can Tobin conclude about the relationship between the enzyme concentration and the reaction rate in the presence of excess substrate?

There is a direct relationship; as the enzyme concentration increases, the rate of reaction increases.


How do you control a chemical reaction?

Through temperature, concentration, surface area, and the use of catalists. Temperature - most reaction go faster with a higher temperature (not always the case) So you raise or lower the temperature to control the speed. Concentration - this can be calculated. The higher the concentration the faster the outcome and the more product you get. Catalists will always make it faster. More catalist, fater reaction. Surface Area-The more surface area, the faster the reaction. for example, if you break up an antacid tablet (alka seltzer) it will dissolve faster than a whole one because it has more surface area


How does temperature concentration and acidity affect reaction rate?

Generally increasing the temperature and concentration the reaction rate is higher.
