Problem 4. Activation energy

Razavi, Blagodatskaya, and Kuzyakox (2015) found the maximum rate of xylanase in soil samples

at different temperatures. They used a sample size of 0.5 g of soil and an enzyme concentration of 1

umol, the results are in the following table:

a) Calculate the values of KCAT and the energy of activation of the reaction.
