Teachers Notes:

Problem 1:
a. Intermediates: Luciferyl adenylate-luciferase
Catalyst: luciferase
b. luciferine + ATP + O2 → pyrophospate + oxyluciferin + AMP + light
c. A = reactants, A* = activated complex, B = products

Problem 2:
Intermediates : C6H5OC2O4H, C2O4, [CO2] · - , [C42H28+, [C42H28]*
Catalyst: C42H28
Complex reaction: C14H6N4O12+ H2O2 C42H28 → 2 C6H5OH + CO2 + hν (light) + products

Problem 3:
a. Intermediates: I, F*
Catalyst: Fluorophor (F)
b. A catalyst lowers the activation energy for the reaction.
