Summary Introduction

To review:

The equilibrium constant for the hydrolysis of glucose-6-phosphate if the concentration of glucose and phosphate is 4.8 mM(millimolar) each and the concentration of glucose-6-phosphate is 0.25 mM.

Introduction:

Glucose-6-phosphatase is the enzyme that carries out the hydrolysis of glucose-6-phosphate. The end product of the hydrolysis is a phosphate group and a free glucose. The equilibrium constant of any reaction can be calculated if the concentration of reactants and products isknown.
