In an enzyme concentration lab, could you explain the relationship between percent concentration of catalase and the reaction rate?
Solution
The enzyme catalase catalyzes the decomposition of hydrogen peroxide into water and oxygen.
Catalase lowers the activation energy of the reaction. There is a direct relation between the concentration of catalase and the rate of reaction.
Reaction rate increases as the concentration of the enzyme increases. Based on experiments it has been shown that the direct correlation is observed when the concentration of hydrogen peroxide is greater than 0.09875%
