Th e enzyme-catalyzed conversion of a substrate at 25°c has a michaelis constant of 0.045 mol dm−3. th e rate of the reaction is 1.15 mmol dm−3 s−1 when the substrate concentration is 0.110 mol dm−3. what is the maximum velocity of this reaction?

is the maximum velocity of this reaction.

Explanation:

Michaelis–Menten 's equation:

v = rate of formation of products =

[S] = Concatenation of substrate

= Michaelis constant

= Maximum rate achieved

= Catalytic rate of the system

= Initial concentration of enzyme

We have :

is the maximum velocity of this reaction.

the reaction mixture contains some ammonia, plus a lot of unreacted nitrogen and hydrogen. the mixture is cooled and compressed, causing the ammonia gas to condense into a liquid. the liquefied ammonia is separated and removed. the unreacted nitrogen and hydrogen are then recycled back into the reactor .
