Question

When a biochemical reaction is carried out in laboratory in the absence of enzyme then rate of reaction obtained is 10⁻⁶ times, then activation energy of reaction in the presence of enzyme is
(a) $\frac{6}{RT}$
(b) different from $E_a$ obtained in laboratory
(c) P is required
(d) can't say anything

Answer 1

Ea translates as activation energy and this would be the minimum amount of energy required for you or me to rise from the chair and walk across the room or perform any task that would involve a specific chemical reaction.

This reaction will kick start the chemicals or enzymes necessary to produce the get-up-and-go required to complete the string of sufficient response to start, an example, a combustion engine. In biochemical processing, the molecules require energy to have a reaction begin. They need that push so that they collide and hence the reaction is created.
