A) Assuming that ubiquinone is unavailable inside of the cell, calculate the delta G and the Keq if electrons are transferred directly from complex l to complex lll of the electron transport chain. In your answer include the net equation for this electron transfer. Constants: R = 8.31/ degree1mol, F = 96.1kJ/voltmol, T = 298K. Half reaction: E(V) Ubiquinone + 2e- + 2H+ --> Ubiquinol + H2 0.045 NAD+ + 2e- +2H+ --> NADH + H+ -0.320 1/2 O2 + 2e- + 2H+ --> H2O 0.816 Cytc (Fe3+) + + 1e- + 1H+ --> Cytc (Fe3+) 0.254 B) In a single sentence explain whether or not this electron transfer is possible
