    Factors: Effect On Reaction Rate If Factor Is Reduced/Decreased Effect On Reaction Rate If Factor Is Raised/Increased

    Uploaded by

    Alfie Lyn Pedregosa
    The document summarizes how six factors - enzyme concentration, substrate concentration, inhibitor concentration, temperature, size of container, and pH - affect the rate of enzyme reactions. It explains that increasing the first four factors generally increases the reaction rate by allowing for more successful collisions between enzymes and substrates. However, it notes temperature and pH have optimal levels and too much change can denature the enzymes and decrease reaction rates. The size of the container only affects reaction rates initially, with larger containers allowing more collisions per unit time.
