Chapter 24, Problem 34GQ

The first step of the metabolic process known as glycolysis is the conversion of glucose to glucose- 6-phosphate. This process has a positive value for

rGₒ'

Glucose + Pi → Glucose-6-phosphate + H2O

rG' = +13.8 kJ/mol-rxn

This reaction is coupled to the hydrolysis of ATP

ATP + H2O → ADP + Pi     ∆rGₒ' = -30.5 kJ/mol-rxn

What is the sum of these two equations and the value of ∆rG' for the coupled reaction? Is the coupled reaction product-favored at equilibrium?

A key step in the metabolism of glucose for energy is theisomerization of glucose-6-phosphate (G6P) to fructose-6- phosphate (F6P): G6P⇌F6P; K=0.510 at 298 K.(a) Calculate ΔG° at 298 K.(b) Calculate ΔG when Q, the [F6P]/[G6P] ratio, equals 10.0.(c) Calculate ΔG when Q=0.100.(d) Calculate Q if ΔG =-2.50 kJ/mol.
pick the substance and conditions which would have the higher entropy. a) fructose (C6H12O6) b) sucrose (C12H24O12)
In glycolysis, the reaction of glucose (Glu) to form glucose-6-phosphate (G6P) requires ATP to be present as described by the following equation:Glu + ATP⟶G6P + ADP                 ΔG°298 = −17 kJIn this process, ATP becomes ADP summarized by the following equation:ATP⟶ADP                                      ΔG°298 = −30 kJDetermine the standard free energy change for the following reaction, and explain why ATP is necessary to drive this process:Glu⟶G6P                                      ΔG°298 = ?
