Question
Enzyme catalysed reaction has maximum rate at optimum temperature. Prove it.
✓
Answer
1. At first rate of reaction increases with the increase of temperature, but above a particular temperature, the activity of enzyme is destroyed. The rate may even drop to zero. The temperature at which enzymic activity in high or maximum is called optimum temperature.
2. For e.g., enzymes involved in human body have an optimum temperature 37°C/98°F.
