substrate
D. substrate (a specific reactant acted upon by an enzyme is called the enzyme's substrate.)
No, a catalyst will not change reaction enthalpy. If it does so, then it is NOT a catalyst but a reactant in stead!
When a biological catalyst combines with a reactant to form an unstable intermediate, the catalyst facilitates the breaking and forming of chemical bonds in the reactant molecule through mechanisms such as acid-base catalysis, covalent catalysis, or metal ion catalysis. This leads to the formation of a transition state that is energetically favorable for the reaction to proceed, ultimately resulting in the formation of products and regeneration of the catalyst.
The reactant that binds to an enzyme's active site is called a substrate.
A catalyst is a substance that increases the rate of a chemical reaction without being consumed in the process, while a reactant is a substance that participates in a chemical reaction and is consumed. Essentially, a catalyst speeds up a reaction without being changed itself, while a reactant is consumed during the reaction.
Catalyst is not a reactant.
the region where a reactant binds to an enzyme is known as the active site
If a substance is a reactant or product of a chemical reaction then, by definition, it cannot be a catalyst.
If a substance is a reactant or product of a chemical reaction then, by definition, it cannot be a catalyst.
The substrate
Oxygen acts as a reactant.
a product
No. If something is consumer, then it is a reactant.
If NaOH is totally used up in the reaction process, it is a reactant; If not it's a catalyst.
The catalyst is not a reactant; a catalyst only favors a chemical reaction, the reaction rate and yield.
The catalyst is not a reactant in a chemical reaction but contribute to the success of this reaction.
