1. Explain how differences in the relative rate of activity can be used to determine the specificity of an enzyme for a substrate.
2. Explain which carbohydrate is most specific for alpha-galactosidase
based on your data.
3. Hypothesize why two or more molecules can be used as a substrate
for one enzyme.

What best explains whether bromine (br) or neon (ne) is more likely to form a covalent bond? bromine forms covalent bonds because it has seven valence electrons, but neon has eight valence electrons and already fulfills the octet rule. bromine forms covalent bonds because it has many electron shells, but neon has only two electron shells and is tightly bound to its electrons. neon forms covalent bonds because it can share its valence electrons, but bromine has seven valence electrons and can gain only one more electron. neon forms covalent bonds because it has only two electron shells, but bromine has many electron shells and will lose electrons in order to fulfill the octet rule.
