Which of the following parameters would be different for a reaction carried out in the presence of a catalyst, compared with the same reaction carried out in the absence of a catalyst? (Hint: See Section 5.13.)
ΔG°, ΔH°, Ea, ΔSz, ΔH°, Keq. ΔGz, ΔS°, Krate
Interpretation: The parameters those are different for a reaction taking place in the presence of a catalyst compared with the same reaction taking place in the absence of a catalyst has to be identified.
Concept introduction:
Catalyst: Substance which helps in increasing the rate of a particular reaction without getting consumed in the reaction. It does not get consumed or changed by the reaction. It provides a different pathway where the transition state is more stable and with shorter energy hill.
Explanation of Solution
Catalyst provides a different pathway where the transition state is more stable and with shorter energy hill. Energy difference of the rate-determining step taking place between the reactant and transition state is reduced by a catalyst and increases the rate of the reaction. Hence the height of energy hill is decreased in this step. The parameters that depend on the energy difference of the rate-determining step taking place between the reactant and transition state differ while the reaction occurs in presence of a catalyst. Therefore, the parameters those are different for a reaction taking place in the presence of a catalyst compared with the same reaction taking place in the absence of a catalyst are

- Adenosine triphosphate, ATP, is used as a free-energy source by biological cells. (See the essay on page 624.) ATP hydrolyzes in the presence of enzymes to give ADP: ATP(aq)+H2O(l)ADP(aq)+H2PO4(aq);G=30.5kJ/molat25C Consider a hypothetical biochemical reaction of molecule A to give molecule B: A(aq)B(aq);G=+15.0kJ/molat25C Calculate the ratio [B]/[A] at 25C at equilibrium. Now consider this reaction coupled to the reaction for the hydrolysis of ATP: A(aq)+ATP(aq)+H2O(l)B(aq)+ADP(aq)+H2PO4(aq) If a cell maintains a high ratio of ATP to ADP and H2PO4 by continuously making ATP, the conversion of A to B can be made highly spontaneous.
