- Consider the reaction. k₁ S P k₂ What effects are produced by an enzyme on the general reaction? AG for the reaction increases. The formation of the transition state is promoted. The reaction equilibrium is shifted toward the products. The concentration of the reactants is decreased. The activation energy for the reaction is lowered. The rate constant for the forward reaction (k₁1) increases.arrow_forwardFor a reversible bimolecular association reaction A + B <=> AB, what are the units of Kassoc? M sec-1 M-1 sec-1 Marrow_forwardConsider the two multistep reaction pathways, which face identical reaction conditions. Which reaction pathway will give a higher yield and why? # 1 KCN 1. НО, Нао Br CEN COOH 2. H30* # 2 KCN 1. НО, Н-о Br CEN COOH 2. H,0* Select the true statement. Pathway #2 will give a higher yield. There is more steric hindrance for secondary substrates than for primary substrates in the SN2 reaction, which is the first mechanism in each of the pathways. O Pathway #1 will give a higher yield. There is much less steric hindrance for primary substrates than for secondary substrates in the SN2 reaction, which is the first mechanism in each of the two pathways. Both pathways will give the same yield.arrow_forward
- An experiment was performed in a similar manner as Experiment 4 (The Hydrolysis of t-Butyl Chloride). The following data was obtained: Total Time (s) Volume NaOH Titrant used (mL) 46 2.01 91 3.97 131 5.98 175 8.03 220 10.00 266 11.99 311 14.01 357 15.97 401 17.98 450 20.02 Final Volume NaOH to fully react sample: 85.01 mL Assume the proposed reaction mechanism in the experimental procedure is correct. Based on the above measurements, how many minutes would it take for the solution to reach 81.0% completion? Round your final answer to two decimal places.arrow_forward2. As you are probably aware, some proteins "glow," most famously Green Fluorescent Protein (2008 Nobel Prize in Chemistry). The color of these proteins can be shifted by an elimination reaction as described in the article "The E1 Mechanism in Photo-Induced B-Elimination Reactions for Green-to-Red Conversion of Fluorescent Proteins." NRVF. NRVF. His-Nu H N-ATTL. KİKGRX ATTL. HO NH HO His-Ce hv His-CB a) Propose a simple mechanism for the reaction using arrow pushing. b) How might His-Na (which sits in the surrounding protein) accelerate the reaction? To initiate the reaction, should this histidine be in its acid or conjugate base form? Draw this form of histidine side chain. c) How about His-CB? d) Provide a brief explanation of why the reaction yields a shift from green to red color.arrow_forwardGiven the transition state diagram(s) below, identify the mechanism(s) of catalysis.
