Question
Chapter 18, Problem 7P
Interpretation Introduction
Interpretation:
The difference in standard redox potential value of reduction of O2 in biology and chemistry.
Concept introduction:
When an atom accepts an electron or hydrogen atom or loses oxygen, then it is termed as reduced. The process is termed as reduction. Further, the donation of electron and hydrogen or acceptance of oxygen is termed as the oxidation.

- Each plot has its own limitations. Match the plot with the correct statement on limitations. 1.Hanes-Woolf 2.Michaelis Menten 3.Lineweaver-Burk limitations: A. This plot appears to allow for more accurate calculation of these parameters, but is prone to error, as the y-axis takes the reciprocal of the rate of reaction –this increases any small errors in measurement at low substrate concentration, where they are most likely to occur. B.The advantage of this plot is that it does not not overemphasizing the data obtained at low [S]. The disadvantage is that any inaccurate measures of substrate concentration will be exaggerated as [S] is used on both axes.
