- You and a friend are eating dinner together, and a number of events occur during your dinner that call to mind the Laws of Thermodynamics. Match each event to the most relevant Law of Thermodynamics. Your food is cooked on a propane grill, which converts the chemical energy from propane and oxygen into the heat used to cook the food, First Law of Thermodynamics Second Law of Thermodynamics Your meals arrive, and your friend enjoys eating her steak, which contains chemical energy that will be converted into other forms of chemical energy within her body. After the meal, you go for a walk. The chemical energy from dinner will help generate ATP to fuel the skeletal muscles used for walking. The waiter brings a basket of bread, but as you eat it crumbs are scattered on the table. Your glass of water falls off the table and breaks into many pieces.arrow_forwardState the first and second laws of thermodynamics, and discuss the implications of these laws as they relate to organisms.arrow_forwardWhich of the following is true of thermodynamically spontaneous reactions?

- Which of the following describe energy unavailable to do cellular work? Group of answer choices Gibbs Free Energy Entropy Enthalpy delta Garrow_forwardthis one represents an endothermic reaction. Things are similar: the flat line on the left (beginning of the reaction) is the total energy possessed by the reactant molecules; once again, kJ stands for energy in kiloJoules, thousands of Joules. The flat line on the right (reaction complete) is the total energy of the products. Since an endothermic reaction has a net absorption of energy (taking this extra energy from the surroundings), the products have higher energy than the reactants. Question: the energy of the reactant molecules is kJ. [to answer, simply identify the correct y-axis coordinate.] 250 200 PE (kJ) 150 100 50 Reaction pathwayarrow_forwardFigure 6.8 Look at each of the processes shown, and decide if it is endergonic or exergonic. In each case, does enthalpy increase or decrease, and does entropy increase or decrease?arrow_forward

(note: cells are open systems not closed)arrow_forwardLife is sometimes described as a constant struggle against the second law of thermodynamics. How do organisms succeed in this struggle?arrow_forwardWhich of the following steps should be followed when performing kinetics experiments? the michaelis constant must be known the enzyme and substrate should not be mixed until just before the absorbance readings are taken reaction rates must be taken until reaction completion enzyme concentration must remain constantarrow_forward
- What statements concerning free energy change are true or false? a. Free energy change is a measure of the rate of a reaction. b. Free energy change is a measure of the maximum amount of work available from a reaction. c. Free energy change is a constant for a reaction under any conditions. d. Free energy is related to the equilibrium constant for a specific reaction. e. Free energy change is equal to zero at equilibriumarrow_forwardThe second law of thermodynamics, in a very general sense, states that entropy (S) is always increasing. ASuniverse AS system + AS surroundings > 0 When phospholipids are dispersed in an aqueous solution, they will often form more ordered structures in the form of micelles, liposomes, or lipid bilayers. This behavior seemingly contradicts the second law of thermodynamics. Why is this behavior in agreement with the second law of thermodynamics?
