We discussed in class (several times) how the Boltzmann distribution can be used to relate the relative populations of two states differing in energy by AU. Suppose you are given a vial containing a solution of glucose in water (don't ask why this would happen). For the purpose of this question, glucose exists in one of two conformations-"chair" or "boat"-with an energy difference (AU) of 25.11 kJ mol1 between them. 1. What would be the proportion of molecules in the "boat" conformation at 310K? 2.
