Chapter 3, Problem 17P
Interpretation Introduction

(a) Interpretation:

If the Δ S o for the given reaction is less than or greater than zero should be identified.

Concept Introduction:

The entropy of the reaction defines the randomness of the system. The value of change in entropy will be positive if randomness in the system (reaction) increases and it has negative value if randomness decreases.

Interpretation Introduction

(b) Interpretation:

The non-equilibrium concentration of ethanol in yeast cells, if the value of change in Gibbs free energy is 38.3 kJ/molat pH 7.4 and temperature 37   o C

Concept Introduction:

The standard Gibbs free energy is related to standard electrode potential of cell as follows:

Δ G o =nF E o ( V )Here, n is number of electrons transferred in the overall reaction and F is Faradays constant which is 96500  C mol -1 .

Also, standard change in Gibbs free energy is related to change in Gibbs free energy as follows:

ΔG=Δ G o +RTln [P] [R] Here, R is Universal gas constant; T is temperature, [P] is concentration of product and [R] is concentration of reactant.

Interpretation Introduction

(c) Interpretation:

The effect on value of change in Gibbs free energy due to decrease in pH should be identified.

Concept Introduction:

Standard change in Gibbs free energy is related to change in Gibbs free energy as follows:

ΔG=Δ G o +RTln [P] [R] Here, R is Universal gas constant; T is temperature, [P] is concentration of product and [R] is concentration of reactant.

Interpretation Introduction

(d) Interpretation:

The effect on value of change in Gibbs free energy due to increase in intracellular CO2levels should be identified.

Concept Introduction:

Standard change in Gibbs free energy is related to change in Gibbs free energy as follows:

ΔG=Δ G o +RTln [P] [R] Here, R is Universal gas constant; T is temperature, [P] is concentration of product and [R] is concentration of reactant.

Interpretation Introduction

(e) Interpretation:

The effect on value of change in standard Gibbs free energy due to increase in intracellular CO2levels should be identified.

Concept Introduction:

Standard change in Gibbs free energy is related to change in Gibbs free energy as follows:

ΔG=Δ G o +RTln [P] [R] Here, R is Universal gas constant; T is temperature, [P] is concentration of product and [R] is concentration of reactant.

The preferred substrate is T because the enzyme half-saturates at 7.00 mM for T, but requires 28.0 mM for U, and 112 mM for S. b Question Content Area The rate constant k 2 with substrate S is 9.60×107 sec-1, with substrate T, k 2 = 6.00×104 sec-1, and with substrate U, k 2 = 2.40×106 sec-1. Calculate the catalytic efficiency with S, T, and U. Catalytic efficiency with S =  Catalytic efficiency with T =   Catalytic efficiency with U =   Does enzyme A use substrate S, substrate T, or substrate U with greater catalytic efficiency?
Fumerase catalyzes the conversion of fumerate to malate. fumerate + H2O ⇋ malate The turnover number, kcat, for fumerase is 8.00×102 sec-1. The Km of this enzyme for fumerate is 5.00×10-3 μmol mL-1.   a   In an experiment using 2.00×10-3 μmol·mL-1, what is Vmax?
Suppose you wanted to make a buffer of exactly pH 7.00 using KH2PO4 and Na2HPO4. If the final solution was 0.18 M in KH2PO4, you would need 0.25 M Na2HPO4. Now assume you wish to make a buffer at the same pH, using the same substances, but want the total phosphate molarity ([HPO42−]+[H2PO−4]) to equal 0.20 M. What concentration of the Na2HPO4 would be required?
