Revenue Since GenieChip is a product-based business, revenue streams will all be from the sale of the product. Sales will offer a starter pack called the Lamp Package, which includes five chips as well as an app download, additional chips are sold in packs of three (the Three Wishes Package) and one (the Magic Package). In order to determine the price of each package, we approximated costs of producing each and set a revenue goal. The starter pack would cost the company $22 500 to produce 900 packs of the chips alone. Therefore, these will cost $40 in order to cover both the application and the chips themselves and make a profit. For packages of three, a goal of $1000 profit was set to sell 100 units, resulting in a price of $25. As for single…

Enzymes are biological molecules (proteins) that allow certain chemical reactions to take place much quicker than reactions would occur on their own. Enzymes function as catalyst, which means they speed up reactions by providing an alternative reaction pathway of lower activation energy (cite). Each step of a pathway typically requires a specific enzyme, without the specific enzyme, the pathway can not be completed. In addition, enzymes do not undergo permanent reactions and remain unchanged by…

conditions, such as because they might require elevated temperatures or dissimilar pHs to proceed without a catalyst. Enzymes work by reducing the activation energy required for a chemical reaction to proceed. The structure of enzymes is essential for their function. They are globular proteins, characteristic for being coiled into precise three-dimensional shape. Enzymes have hydrophilic R groups on the outside, which ensures that they are soluble. Furthermore, these molecules contain an active…

specific chemical reactions. What this means is that an enzyme is a protein its function is to function as catalyst which lowers the activation energy for the reaction to occur quicker. Enzymes have different ways that it reacts with substrates. One way is that an enzyme reacts with a substrate is by bringing two substrates together correctly or by stressing particular bonds of substrates. By doing on or the other an enzyme can lower the activation energy of the reaction. More specifically the…

The effect of the increase or decrease of [tBuCl] is evident by observing the reaction rate for each trial. As the initial concentration of tBuCl is increasing, the rate of the reaction is also increasing. As explained above, since this is a SN1 mechanism, the reaction rate is only dependant of the increase or decrease of the tertiary alkyl halide, Hence, the rate law for this reaction will be Rate = k [tBuCl], where the change in concentration of OH- will play no role other than being a…

Enzymes are organic catalysts that speed up reactions that occur by lowering the activation energy of the reactants. By lowering the activation energy, the chemical bonds are weakened, thus the reactions are much faster than without the catalyst. Enzymes are composed of proteins which shape dictates the function of the enzyme. On the enzyme it contains a part called the active site where the substrate binds and the chemical reaction undergoes. A substrate is the chemical involved in the…

Introduction In mostly all living things, many biological processes are too inefficient to occur on their own. With the help of enzymes, or protein catalysts, the efficiency of these chemical reactions becomes much greater having less of an effect on the cells they occur in. Enzymes help to increase the overall rate of these reactions by lowering the energy needed to activate this process during the transitional phase. They can do this without being consumed or permanently altered by the…

Excel’s calculations for Linear Regression. The function, ퟏ−(ퟏ−휶) ⅓, is dimensionless. Therefore, the rate constant is k_s [=] 1/min as it balances out the unit for time. Question 2: (ii) Plot Rate Constants’ natural log vs 1/T. Fit a straight line, estimate Activation Energy (kJ/mol), and pre-exponential factor A (units?). Note: each test must use the same leaching model to find activation energy! Table 22: Data for Q2(ii) Plot The Arrhenius Equation equates the rate constant (k) to…

Background: A catalyst is a substance that increases the rate of a chemical reaction without itself undergoing permanent chemical change. The most common catalysts in biological systems are special proteins called enzymes. Enzymes are long chains of amino acids that have taken a very specific three-dimensional shape called a globular shape. This specific shape contains an area that is designed to match a specific molecule. The substance that an enzyme operates on is known as its substrate.…

Catalysts are substances that increase the rate of chemical reactions without itself undergoing any permanent chemical change. It speeds up the reaction by lowering the activation energy required. An enzyme is a substance produced by a living organism that acts as a catalyst to bring about a specific biochemical reaction. Enzymes carry out the thousands of chemical reactions that occur on cells, or the basic units of structure and function of an organism. Usually, they are polymers of thousands…
