for the (a) part, i got t=1.08e-12 s, so anyone knows how to do part (b)? Thx

Bacteriorhodopsin is a protein found in Halobacterium halobium that converts light energy into a transmembrane proton gradient that is used for ATP synthesis After light is absorbed by the protein, the following initial reaction sequence occurs, with k1=2x10^12 sec^-1 and k2=3.3x10^11 sec^-1. B right arrow k1 J right arrow k2 K a. At what time will the maximum concentration of the intermediate J occur? b. Construct plots of the concentration of each species versus time. for the (a) part, i got t=1.08e-12 s, so anyone knows how to do part (b)? Thx

Explanation / Answer

Concentration of B and J verses time

Plot of [B] vs Time

Plot [J] vs time

Plot of [K] vs Time
