Question

Let’s say that enzyme X is the catalyst responsible for breaking starch down to individual glucose molecules. Which of the following things can happen to the starch and enzyme system if you raise the temperature?

Enzyme X catalyzed
Starch -------------------------------> many glucose molecules

a) The rate of the reaction of starch going to glucose will increase.

b) Nothing should happen since a catalyst does not affect the equilibrium.

c) The enzyme could stop working effectively because the folded form would stop being made and would start to unravel if the process is reversible.

d) The equilibrium constant will get bigger to favor the glucose side more.

e) a and c

Answer 1

The reaction is '- - starch > Glucose Now, hets say without Catalyst, the reaction follows Arrhenious equation - KFA EURT, But with Catalyst, the fi decrease and changes to Ez, where ) E2 and also temperature increases. To cohere T2T, Thy, Kya de -2/RT3 Thus, Kztok, They Rate will increase. correct option is! - e) a sc.
