Interpretation:
Whether the given reaction of synthesis of glutamine from glutamic acid is spontaneous or not when coupled with ATP hydrolysis needs to be determined.
Concept introduction:
A non-spontaneous reaction can be changed to spontaneous reaction either by changing the reactions conditions like temperature or by combining the reaction with other reaction to get an overall spontaneous reaction. The spontaneity of the reaction can be determined with the help of sign of
