Why does the concentration of the enzyme make a difference to how fast the reaction works?
The concentration of the enzyme affects the rate of reaction because enzymes are catalysts that speed up chemical reactions by increasing the frequency of successful collisions between substrates. Higher enzyme concentrations mean more enzymes are available to convert substrate molecules, leading to a faster overall reaction rate. Once all substrate molecules are bound to enzymes, further increases in enzyme concentration will not speed up the reaction.
How does the concentration of an oxidizing agent affect a redox reaction?
The concentration of an oxidizing agent can affect the rate and extent of a redox reaction. Higher concentrations of the oxidizing agent can increase the reaction rate by providing more oxidizing molecules to accept electrons from the reducing agent. This can lead to a faster and more complete reaction.
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 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.

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.

Higher concentrations of the oxidizing agent can increase the reaction rate by providing more oxidizing molecules to accept electrons from the reducing agent.

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.

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 is the minimum enzyme concentration required to initiate a reaction?
The minimum enzyme concentration needed to start a reaction varies depending on the specific enzyme and reaction conditions. In general, a higher enzyme concentration can lead to a faster reaction rate, but there is no fixed minimum concentration that applies universally. The amount of enzyme required to initiate a reaction is typically determined through experimentation and optimization.

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.
How does temperature concentration and acidity affect reaction rate?
Generally increasing the temperature and concentration the reaction rate is higher.

How does an increase in concentration affects rates of chemical reaction?
The rate of chemical reaction increase as the concentration of the chemicals increase. The reason is obvious. There is more opportunity for the atoms to come in contact with each other. This facilitates rate of chemical reaction.
