Question

The reciprocal of this quantity is plotted on the y-axis against the reciprocal of the substrate concentration on a Lineweaver-Burk plot. (15[1])The steric factor equals this quantity divided by its value predicted by collision theory. An increase in temperature and decrease in activation energy increases this quantity by the (*) Arrhenius Equation. The proportionality of this quantity (10[1])to the concentration of reactants characterizes first and second order reactions. For 10 points, (10[1])catalysts increase what quantity that measures the speed at which a chemical reaction takes place? ■END■
