For protein X, you do not know the extinction coefficient of the substrate to calculate the true concentration. Therefore you are planning to calculate the initial rate of reaction as a change in absorbance per unit of time. After you did the experiment, you found that the the straightest portion of your graph is between 0 minute and 1 minute, and the absorbance changes from 0.865 to 0.132 within one minute. Calculate the initial velocity, which will be expressed as min-1.

I am taking an online chem class and it’s harder than I thought. I have the answers to my whole study guide but I want to understand the WHY of the answers. Thank you!
2. The physical mechanism involved in elementary reactions was given as: A+ A k1 A* + A activation by binary collisions A* + A A + A deactivation by binary collisions k2 A* + bA *, products reaction step where b = 0 for unimolecular reaction steps b = 1 for bimolecular reaction steps b = 2 for termolecular reaction steps. Carry out a steady state analysis to show that unimolecular reactions are first order at high pressures, moving to second order at low pressures. State the rate determining steps in each region. In contrast, show that bimolecular reactions are second order at all pressures.
You have measured the absorbance of the enzyme-catalyzed reaction using alkaline phosphatase (E) and p-nitrophenol phosphate (S), then created the table below. What is the velocity of the Time (min) Absorbance (OD) 0.5 0.22 reaction? 1.0 0.63 1.5 1.1 2.0 1.5 .085 O 1.28 O 1.17 O .85
What is meant by the phrase, “the binding constant is determined by how fast things come together and how fast they fall apart”?
Could someone double check my results from an investigating the rates of reaction lab session I did recently? Also I'd be very grateful if someone could help me with filling out the second page and if its first, second order etc as I don't properly understand that.
(a) A free radical substitution is shown as below: P• + Q2 +→ PQ + Q• The activation energy for the forward and reverse reaction is 127 kJ mol and 15 kJ mol" respectively. Draw and label the potential energy profile diagram for the reaction and calculate the changes of energy for the forward reaction.
The rate of a first-order reaction is followed by spectroscopy, monitoring the absorbance of a colored reactant at 520 nm. The reaction occurs in a 1.00-cm sample cell, and the only colored species in the reaction has an extinction coefcient of 5.60 * 103 M-1 cm-1 at 520 nm. The absorbance falls to 0.250 at 30.0 min. Calculate the rate constant in units of s - 1.
Determine the missing initial rate: 2N2O5 → 4NO2 + O2 [N2O5] Initial rate (Ms-1) 0.093 4.84x10-4 0.084 4.37x10-4 0.224 ??
