The value of ) depends on the values of [(& ] and [%& ] in the feed to the
reactor.
Many such experiments can be used to generate many pairs of ) and [S]
data.
These data could be plotted as the figure in the next slide, but the
accurate determination of !" and #" from such a plot is very difficult.

Double-reciprocal Plot (Lineweaver-Burk plot)
Equation (5) can be linearized in a double-reciprocal form as:

A plot of 1/- versus 1/[.] yields a linear line with a slope of 01 ⁄21 and y-axis
intercept of 1⁄21 as depicted in the figure. A double-reciprocal plot gives good
estimates on 21 .

When the first step of the reaction, the complex formation step, is much
faster than the product formation step, k1 and k-1 are large compared to k2
and k-2 , therefore,
Michaelis-Menten approach
Problem 2
The enzyme Fumarase, has the following reaction mechanism and kinetic
constants:
k1 k2
S+E ES P+E
k-1
where, k1 = 109 M-1 s-1
k-1 = 4.4 x 104 s-1
k2 = 103 s-1
