Answer:

Coupling reaction such as hydrolysis of ATP provide the energy needed to run an endergonic reaction.

Explanation:

The endergonic reactions are non spontaneous and thermodynamically unfavorable because the free energy change for those reactions are positive.

To make this reaction spontaneous and thermodynamically favorable the reaction which is endergonic is coupled with hydrolysis of ATP that generate huge amount of free energy thus making the free energy change of the overall reaction negative.

What volume (in L) will a 32 g sample of butane gas, C4H10(g), occupy at a temperature of 45.0 oC and a pressure of 728 mm Hg?

Answer:

15.0 L

Explanation:

To find the volume, you need to use the Ideal Gas Law:

PV = nRT

In this equation,

-----> P = pressure (mmHg)

-----> V = volume (L)

-----> n = moles

-----> R = Ideal Gas constant (62.36 L*mmHg/mol*K)

-----> T = temperature (K)

To calculate the volume, you need to (1) convert grams C₄H₁₀ to moles (via the molar mass), then (2) convert the temperature from Celsius to Kelvin, and then (3) calculate the volume (via the Ideal Gas Law).

Molar Mass (C₄H₁₀): 4(12.011 g/mol) + 10(1.008 g/mol)

Molar Mass (C₄H₁₀): 58.124 g/mol

32 grams C₄H₁₀ 1 moles
------------------------- x ----------------------- = 0.551 moles C₄H₁₀
58.124 grams

P = 728 mmHg R = 62.36 L*mmHg/mol*K

V = ? L T = 45.0 °C + 273.15 = 318.15 K

n = 0.551 moles

PV = nRT

(728 mmHg)V = (0.551 moles)(62.36 L*mmHg/mol*K)(318.15 K)

(728 mmHg)V = 10922.7632

V = 15.0 L
