The maximum reaction velocity (Vm) for an enzyme catalyzed reaction was experimentally measured at two different temperatures and following results obtained : Temperature, °C 27 37
Vm mmol m–3 2.25 4.50
The energy of activation for the reaction is
-
- 12834 cal mol–1
- 25668 cal mol–1
- 6417 cal mol–1
- 19251 cal mol–1
Correct Option: A
| log | = |  |  | |||
| K1 | 2.303 R | T1 T2 |
| log (2) = | ||
| 2.303 × 1.986(300 × 310) |
| Eα = | × 425359.5 | |
