1/Vo = (Km/Vmax)1/S + 1/Vmax
Comparing this equation with Y=aX + c
where a is the slope and c is the intercept
1/Vmax = intercept
so V max = 1/intercept
For Uninhibited State.
y = 7.4985x + 2.4935
1/Vmax = 2.4935
Vmax = 1/2.4935 = 0.40 mol/min
Km/Vmax is equal to slope
Km/7.4985 = 0.4
Km = 7.4985 * 0.4
0.3 mol
For inhibited state
y = 15.671x + 2.5121
1/Vmax = 2.5121
Vmax = 1/2.5121 =0.398 or 0.40 mol/min
Km/Vmax is equal to slope
Km/15.671 = 0.40
Km =15.671*0.4 = 6.27 mol
Since there is no change in the Vmax bu Km is increased. So type of inhinition is competitive inhibition.
Please write to me if you need more help.
help with b) please 3. Use we wyl Reaction rate (mol/min) (Substrate] Substrate Substrate + Unknown...
