Which of the following statements regarding enzymes is not true ?
Option: 1
Enzymes lower the activation energy of the reaction
Option: 2
Substrate binds to active site of the enzyme
Option: 3
Enzymes change the value of equilibrium constant of the reaction
Option: 4
Enzymes speed up the attainment of equilibrium of the reaction
Answers (1)
Enzymes do not alter the equilibrium constant of a reaction. The equilibrium constant is determined by the difference in free energy between the reactants and products and is independent of the presence of an enzyme. Enzymes only facilitate the conversion of reactants into products, but they do not affect the equilibrium position or alter the ratio of reactants to products once equilibrium is reached. Hence, the correct answer is option 3.
