The reaction converting glycerol to glycerol-3-phosphate can be represented as: glycerol + hpo42− ⟶ glycerol-3-phosphate + h2o.

the gibbs energy for this reaction is δg∘ = 9.2 kj/mol. will this reaction be spontaneous if coupled with the hydrolysis of atp?

Answer;

Yes; this reaction be spontaneous if coupled with the hydrolysis of ATP.

Explanation;

The reaction converting glycerol to glycerol-3-phosphate (energetically unfavorable) can be coupled with the conversion of ATP to ADP (energetically favorable):

Glycerol + HPO42 ⟶glycerol-3-phosphate+H2O

ATP + H2O⟶ ADP + HPO42− + H+

Answer:

Yes, this reaction will be spontaneous.

Explanation:

A reaction is spontaneous if ΔG < 0.

The coupling of glycerol to glycerol-3-phospate with ATP gives:

glycerol + HPO₄²⁻ ⟶ glycerol-3-phosphate + H₂O ΔG = +9,2 kJ/mol

ATP + H₂O ⟶ ADP + HPO₄²⁻ ΔG = -30,5 kJ/mol

glycerol + ATP ⟶ ADP + glycerol-3-phosphate

ΔG = +9,2 kJ/mol - 30,5 kJ/mol = <em>-21,3 kJ/mol</em>

As ΔG<0, <em>this reaction will be spontaneous</em>

<em></em>

I hope it helps!

If 1 mol of XO₂ contains the same number of atoms as 60 g of XOs, what is the molar mass of XO₂?
Lena [83]

Answer:

44 grams/mole

Explanation:

<u>If 1 mol of XO₂ contains the same number of atoms as 60 g of XO3, what is the molar mass of XO₂?</u>

<u></u>

60 grams of XO3 is one mole XO3, since it has the same number of atoms as 1 mole of XO2.

Let c be the molar mass of X.  The molar mass of XO3 is comprised of:

X:  c

3O:  3 x 16 = 48

Total molar mass of XO3 is = <u>48 + c</u>

We know that the molar mass of XO3 = 60 g/mole, so:

48 + c  = 60 g/mole

c = 12 g/mole

The molar mass of XO2 would be:

1 X = 12

2 O = 32

Molar mass = 44 grams/mole, same as carbon dioxide.  Carbon's molar mass is 12 grams.

A certain half-reaction has a standard reduction potential -1.33V . An engineer proposes using this half-reaction at the anode o
Paha777 [63]

Answer:

a. -0.63 V

b. No

Explanation:

Step 1: Given data

  • Standard reduction potential of the anode (E°red): -1.33 V
  • Minimum standard cell potential (E°cell): 0.70 V

Step 2: Calculate the required standard reduction potential of the cathode

The galvanic cell must provide at least 0.70V of electrical power, that is:

E°cell > 0.70 V    [1]

We can calculate the standard reduction potential of the cathode (E°cat) using the following expression.

E°cell = E°cat - E°an   [2]

If we combine [1] and [2], we get,

E°cat - E°an > 0.70 V

E°cat > 0.70 V + E°an

E°cat > 0.70 V + (-1.33 V)

E°cat > -0.63 V

The minimum E°cat is -0.63 V and there is no maximum E°cat.
