Concept #1: Initial Velocity

Concept #2: Enzyme Kinetics Plot (V0 vs [S])

Practice: Why is the initial velocity (V0) the best chance a reaction has at approaching its maximum velocity (Vmax)?

Practice: Calculate the initial reaction rate for A → B, given that [A] i = 9.6 M, [B] i = 0 & [A] f after 0.01 μsec = 9.14 mM.

Practice: In the graph below, why does the curve have a steep incline at first that gradually declines to a horizontal line?
