The amino acid glutamine is the precursor that provides the nitrogen atoms in biosynthetic reactions of manycompounds, including other amino acids, nucleic acids, and amino sugars. It is formed by a condensation reaction ofammonia with the alcohol moiety in the carboxylate group on the side chain of the amino acid glutamate, as follows:glutamate + NH3 - glutamine + H20, with AGn+14 kJ/molrxn1. Show how to determine the equilibrium constant, Keg, from the information provided. Without doing a calculation,decide whether the products or the reactants are going to be favored when the reaction mixture reachesequilibrium. Explain your reasoning.2. If ammonia is added to the reaction mixture present at equilibrium, how would the reaction quotient, Q, change?What does this change in Q indicate? Explain.
