Question
Chapter 17, Problem 13E
Summary Introduction
To determine: The ΔGº value for the portion of the citric acid cycle that converts malate and acetyl-CoA to citrate.
Concept introduction:
The citric acid cycle consists of a series of eight reactions that oxidizes acetyl CoA to CO2 and conserves the liberated energy in the form of reduced compounds such as NADH and FADH2. Free energy is utilized for cellular work.
