Example 2.2(a) What is the maximum electrical work obtainable from the reaction| 02(g) + H,(g)H2O(1)%3Dunder standard conditions (25°C and 1 atm pressure and specifiedamounts of reactants)?(b) What is the heat transferred if this maximum work is obtained?The standard free energy change for the reaction, AG°, is -237.18 kJ mol.The standard enthalpy change, AH°, is -285.85 kJ mol.(a) According to equation 30, the maximum electrical work available underreversible conditions (i.e., when T A,S = 0) is w' = -.kJ mol'. (Two electrons are transferred per mole of the reaction. There-fore the standard potential difference for the electrochemical reactionis: -(-237,180) J/2 x 96,485 J/V =AG° = 237.181.23 V.)- 285.85 + 237.18(b) The heat transferred is-48.67 kJ mol-1. The system releases heat to the surroundings, butmuch less than under irreversible conditions for this reaction.AH° + w' =(Note that here the system is the electrochemical reaction plus the externalelectric circuit required to reversibly extract the free energy released.)

In a reversible reaction, very less amount of heat is lost and thus such reactions are highly…

A critical reaction in the production of energy to do work or drive chemical reactions in biological systems is the hydrolysis of adenosine triphosphate, ATP, to adenosine diphosphate, ADP, as described by the reaction ATP(aq) + H,O(1) → ADP(aq) + HPO (aq) for which AGixn = -30.5 kJ/mol at 37.0 °C and pH 7.0. Calculate the value of AGxn in a biological cell in which [ATP] = 5.0 mM, [ADP] = 0.40 mM, and [HPO?-] = 5.0 mM. AGxn kJ/mol %3D Is the hydrolysis of ATP spontaneous under these conditions? O yes

A 0.576 g sample of liquid C5H12 was combusted using excess oxygen gas inside a bomb calorimeter, with the products being carbon dioxide gas and liquid water. The calorimeter's heat capacity is 4.957 kJ °C^-1. If the temperature inside the calorimeter increased from 25.0 °C to 35.1 °C, determine A,U for this reaction in kl mol (with respect to C3H12). Do not worry about how realistic the final answer is.
