Question
Chapter 15, Problem 18RE
Interpretation Introduction
Interpretation:
The reason is to be explained as to why the
values are not rigorously applicable to biochemical systems.
Concept introduction:
Gibbs free energy is the standard free energy that complements the formation of 1 mole of that substance from its component elements, at their standard states.
The symbol of standard Gibbs free energy is
The initial concentration for all the reactants and products is
Biochemical systems generally do not attain equilibrium and are open systems.
