Consider a reaction with ΔH = 15 kJ and ΔS = 50 J · K−1 . Is the reaction spontaneous (a) at 10°C, (b) at 80°C?
ΔG°′ for the isomerization reaction
glucose-1-phosphate (G1P) →glucose-6-phosphate (G6P)
is −7.1 kJ · mol−1. Calculate the equilibrium ratio of [G1P] to [G6P] at 25°C.
Calculate the equilibrium constant for the reaction. Glucose-1-phosphate+H2O gives Glucose+ H2PO4- at pH 7 and 25oC.
