The enzyme urease catalyzes the reaction of urea, (NH2CONH2), with water to produce carbon dioxide and ammonia. In water, without the enzyme, the reaction proceeds with a first-order rate constant of 4.15 ×10−5s−1 at 100 ∘C. In the presence of the enzyme in water, the reaction proceeds with a rate constant of 3.4 ×104s−1 at 21 ∘C

1.If the rate of the catalyzed reaction were the same at 100 ∘C as it is at 21 ∘C, what would be the difference in the activation energy between the catalyzed and uncatalyzed reactions? Express your answer using two significant figures.

2.

In actuality, what would you expect for the rate of the catalyzed reaction at 100 ∘C as compared to that at 21 ∘C?

In actuality, what would you expect for the rate of the catalyzed reaction at 100  as compared to that at 21 ?

The rate of the catalyzed reaction will be significantly lower at 100 ∘C than at 21 ∘C.
The rate of the catalyzed reaction will be significantly greater at 100 ∘C than at 21 ∘C.
The rate of the catalyzed reaction will be at 100 ∘C will be nearly equal to the rate at 21 ∘C.
