Conclusions drawn from My Experiment on the effect of Enzyme concentration on the time taken for a reaction to occur

ion of urease increases the time the enzyme solution takes to completely react with all of the substrate decreases. The rate of reaction at 1% urease is a lot slower than the reaction that occurred at ... ease. The more active sites will lead to more successful collisions between the enzyme and the substrate giving us more enzyme substrate complexes formed. During the experiment bonds are broken in the ...
