1
Q
How do we increase the rate of a reaction?
A
Increase the temperature and lower the activation energy
2
Q
How do enzymes affect lower activation energy?
A
It lowers the standard free energy and lowers the activation energy and thereby accelerates the
rate because more of the reactant molecules have the energy needed to reach this lowered transition state.
