Q. When a biochemical reaction is carried out in laboratory from outside of human body in the absence of enzyme, the rate of reaction obtained is $10^{-6}$ times, then activation energy of the reaction in the presence of enzyme is

AIPMTAIPMT 2001Chemical Kinetics

Solution:

When a biochemical reaction is carried out laboratory from outside of human body in absence of enzyme, then rate of reaction obtain $10^6$ times than activation energy of reaction presence of enzyme. It is different from $E_a$ ob in laboratory because for a given chemical reac $ \, \, \, k=Ae^{-E_a/RT}$ (Arrhenius equation)
