(a)

Summary Introduction

To explain: The direction in which the equilibrium lies and the value of equilibrium constant at 25oC

Introduction:  Equilibrium is attained in a reaction when the rate at which the products are formed becomes equal to the rate at which the reactants are being consumed. One can change the direction of the reaction by changing the conditions around the reaction. Change in pressure or in temperature can make the reaction move in forward or backward direction.

(b)

Summary Introduction

To determine: The direction in which the reaction proceeds in standard conditions and the value of ΔG'  for the reaction in that direction.

Introduction: Equilibrium is attained in a reaction when the rate at which the products are formed becomes equal to the rate at which the reactants are being consumed. One can change the direction of the reaction by changing the conditions around the reaction. Change in pressure or in temperature can make the reaction move in forward or backward direction.

(c)

Summary Introduction

To determine: The value for ΔG' at 25oC if concentration of G3P is maintained at 1% of the DHAP concentration in the given reaction for glycolytic pathway.

Introduction: Equilibrium is attained in a reaction when the rate at which the products are formed becomes equal to the rate at which the reactants are being consumed. One can change the direction of the reaction by changing the conditions around the reaction. Change in pressure or in temperature can make the reaction move in forward or backward direction.

(d)

Summary Introduction

To determine: The ratio of G3P to DHAP to ensure that the reaction is exergonic by at least -3.0 kacal/mol at 25oC.

Introduction: Equilibrium is attained in a reaction when the rate at which the products are formed becomes equal to the rate at which the reactants are being consumed. One can change the direction of the reaction by changing the conditions around the reaction. Change in pressure or in temperature can make the reaction move in forward or backward direction
