4 molecules of an enzyme and 60000 molecules of substrate are taken all substrate molecules are converted into products in 5 minutes calculate turnover number of enzyme?

Assuming that the turnover number is 5000 per second, which you did not specify, than the number of molecules that can be reached by the enzyme in 5 minutes is just this:
5 minutes * 60 seconds/minute * 5000 turnover/second = 150,000 turnovers
This is because 1 turnover counts as one molecule reached by the enzyme.
If instead the turnover number was 5000 per minute, then it would be:
5 minutes * 5000 turnovers/minute = 25,000 turnovers.
If it was 5000 per hour, then it would be:
5 minutes * 1 hour/60 minutes * 5000 turnovers/hour = 416.7 turnovers.

The binding together of an enzyme and a substrate forms a?
The substrates are converted into products, which are released.
What happens to each products of the Krebs cycle?
Each turn of TCA cycle produces 2 molecules of carbon dioxide, three molecules of NADH and two molecules of FADH2, and one molecule of ATP at the substrate level. The net result of one TCA cycle is the production of 12 ATP.
How does an enzymes active site relate to its substrate-?
The active site is the specific region of the enzyme which combines with the substrate. The binding of the substrate to the enzyme causes changes in the distribution of electrons in the chemical bonds of the substrate and ultimately causes the reactions that lead to the formation of products.

What are the enzymes found in the saliva and list its substrate and products?
salivary amylaseturns proteins into peptides
The binding together of an enzyme and a substrate forms a?
The substrates are converted into products, which are released.
What is the Es complex?
The ES complex refers to the enzyme-substrate complex formed when an enzyme binds to its substrate. This complex is a temporary intermediate state in enzymatic reactions before the substrate is converted to products. In the ES complex, the enzyme provides a suitable environment for the substrate to undergo specific chemical reactions.
What is the substrate salivary amylase?
Starch is the substrate. Salivary amylase (like all amylases) is an enzyme that breaks down bonds between glucose residues in starch molecules. More specifically, the substrate for an amylase is an α-1,4-glycosidic bond. The products are sugars such as maltose and, in smaller amounts, glucose and maltotriose.
Does a enzyme act as a catalysts?
A) The enzyme does not actively take part in the reaction. It just indicates that the reaction is complete. B) Enzymes react with the substrate molecules to form products and become denatured in the process. C) Enzymes ensure that the reaction continues without inhibition even if conditions such as temperature and pH are changed. D) The products of the reaction are released from the active sites of the enzyme, allowing other substrate molecules to bind with the sites.

Are starch and oxygen products of photosynthesis?
Yes both of them are. o2 is the byproduct.First glucose is produced.Later glucose is converted into strach and other molecules
If an enzyme in solution is saturated with substate What is the most effective way to obtain yield of produtct?
If an enzyme solution is saturated with substrate the most effective way to obtain a faster yield of products is to increase the enzyme concentration. An alternative is to increase the temperature.
If substrate were a protein what would its products be?
amino acids
What are the equations for photosynthesis and respiration?
The process of photosynthesis is commonly written as: 6CO2 + 6H2O → C6H12O6 + 6O2. This means that the reactants, six carbon dioxide molecules and six water molecules, are converted by light energy captured by chlorophyll (implied by the arrow) into a sugar molecule and six oxygen molecules, the products.
What is a substrate in the context of enzyme reaction?
Enzyme-substrate specificity means that a substrate can fit into an enzyme similar to a key fitting into a lock. The active site of the enzyme is what determines its specificity. An enzyme can hence catalyze a reaction with a specific substrate, such as amylase catalyzing starch molecules. During these reactions, the substrate is held in a precise optimum position to create and break bonds, catalyzing the molecule.
Why can't maximum initial reaction rates be reached at low substrate concentrations?
The maximum cannot be reached because there are not enough substrates available to react. In other words, the rate cannot be, say, 350 (x10^6) molecules of product formed per minute unless there are enough substrates available to create that many products. The substrates would simply be converted and then it would be over.

Each turn of TCA cycle produces 2 molecules of carbon dioxide, three molecules of NADH and two molecules of FADH2, and one molecule of ATP at the substrate level. The net result of one TCA cycle is the production of 12 ATP.
