In an uncatalyzed reaction, KF(uncatalyzed) = 2.5 X 10-8/s and Keq is 5 X 10². For the same reaction in the presence of an enzyme, KF(catalyzed) = 2.5 X * 102/s. Remember that Keq = KF/KR = k₁/k-1. (a) What is the rate enhancement of the catalyzed reaction in the forward direction? (b) What is the value for KR(uncatalyzed)?

In an uncatalyzed reaction, KF(uncatalyzed) = 2.5 X 10-8/s and Keq is 5 X 10².
For the same reaction in the presence of an enzyme, KF(catalyzed) = 2.5 X
10²/s.
Remember that Keq = KF/KR = k₁/k-1.
(a) What is the rate enhancement of the catalyzed reaction in the forward
direction?
(b) What is the value for KR(uncatalyzed)?
