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>

What product or ratio of properties remains constant (PxT, TxV, P/V, V/T, etx)?When you have decided, label the "constant?" colu
Naddika [18.5K]

Answer:

In this phenomenon we talk about ideal gases, that is why in these equations the constant is the number of moles and the constant R, which has a value of 0.082

Explanation:

The complete equation would have to be P x ​​V = n x R x T

where n is the number of moles, and if it is not clarified it is because they remain constant, as the question was worded.

On the other hand, the symbol R refers to the ideal gas constant, which declares that a gas behaves like an ideal gas during the reaction, and its value will always be the same, which is why it is called a constant. The value of R = 0.082.

The ideal gas model assumes that the volume of the molecule is zero and the particles do not interact with each other. Most real gases approach this constant within two significant figures, under pressure and temperature conditions sufficiently far from the liquefaction or sublimation point. The real gas equations of state are, in many cases, corrections to the previous one.

The universal constant of ideal gases is not a fundamental constant (therefore, choosing the temperature scale appropriately and using the number of particles, we can have R = 1, although this system of units is not very practical)

Answer:

C. Biodiesel made from plant oil.

Explanation:

The  type of vegetable oil used in production greatly affects the performance of biodiesel in the winter. The less saturated the fat, the better the performance in winter time. Canola oil works very well for low temperature biodiesel, and palm oil is among the worst for cold weather performance.

Hope this helped!!!
