Question
Answer
What is the Gibb's free energy equation for a reation?   DeltaG=deltaH-TdeltaS  
🗑
What does the Gibb's free energy equation measure?   The change in free energy during a chemical reaction.  
🗑
In what direction does a reaction go if the Delta G is negative?   towards products/forward  
🗑
When Keq is close to 1 in which direction does the reaction go?   Reaction is at equilibrium  
🗑
If the delta G is positive is the reaction spontaneous?   No  
🗑
At what conditions is delta G naut?   1M [] and pH7  
🗑
If a reaction is endergonic is the delta G positive or negative?   positive  
🗑
What are the high energy compounds?   phosphoenolpyruvate, 1,3 bis-P-glycerate, phosphocreatine, pyrophosphate, phosphoarginine, acetylCoA  
🗑
Why is the free energy of ATP hydrolysis so high?   many negative phosphate groups in close proximity, resonance of products, and products increases entropy  
🗑
explain the equation for Gibb’s free energy   The amount of free energy in a system is equal to the change of heat in a reaction at constant temperature and pressure minus the increase in disorder (entropy) times the temperature.  
🗑
Discuss the role of ATP in energy metabolism   ATP donates a phosphate group to a substrate to activate it, a irreversible reaction. ATP is the universal form of energy and contains a high energy phosphoanhydride bond.  
🗑
Describe the importance of coupling of reactions in metabolism   the energy produced by one exergonic reaction is used to drive another endergonic reaction. The overall sum of ∆G must be negative.  
🗑


   

Review the information in the table. When you are ready to quiz yourself you can hide individual columns or the entire table. Then you can click on the empty cells to reveal the answer. Try to recall what will be displayed before clicking the empty cell.
 
To hide a column, click on the column name.
 
To hide the entire table, click on the "Hide All" button.
 
You may also shuffle the rows of the table by clicking on the "Shuffle" button.
 
Or sort by any of the columns using the down arrow next to any column heading.
If you know all the data on any row, you can temporarily remove it by tapping the trash can to the right of the row.
