A) catalyze reactions that ottherwise would not occur. B) decrease the free energy of activation of reactions, C) decrease the standard free energy change o reactions , D) prevent the conversion of product to substrate, E) shift the equilibrium of reactions toward more complete inversion of productarrow_forwardFor this reaction: 6CO2 + 6H2O → C6H12O6 + 6O2, the products have 2760 kJ/mole more free energy than the reactants. So, which of the following statements best describes the reaction? a The reaction is endergonic because it converts molecules with less free energy to those with more free energy. b The reaction is exergonic because it converts molecules with less free energy to those with more free energy. c The reaction is exergonic because it converts molecules with more free energy to those with less free energy d The reaction is endergonic because it converts molecules with more free energy to those with less free energy.arrow_forward
