Which statement is false?

Chemistry
1 answer:
emmasim [6.3K]3 years ago
5 0

Answer:

  • <u><em>The first statement is false:  a.At equilibrium, equal amounts of products and reactants are present. ΔG° is a function of Keq.</em></u>

Explanation:

When one part of a statement is false, the whole statement is false.

At <em>equilibrium,</em> the amounts of products and reactants does not have to be equal.

At equlibrium the rates of the forward reaction and the reverse reaction must be equal.

An equilibrium reaction may be represented by:

  • A + B ⇄ C + D

That represents two reactions:

  • Direct reaction: A + B → C + D (A and B yield C and D)

  • Reverse reaction: A + B ← C + D (C and D yield A and B: note that the arrow goes from right to left)

So, it is when the direct and the forward rates are equal that there is not net change in the amounts of all the species and so the reaction is is equilibrium).

As per the other statement, both parts are true:

  • When reactants become products, they do so through an intermediate transitrion state: when the reactants approach each other and collide with enough energy and appropiate position, the bonds start to break and the bonds of the products start to form. This is the transition state.

  • Most biocatalysts are proteins: enzymes are simply proteins, with specific structures, that may accelerate or even deceralate biochemical reactions.

Why is an alkali metal element like sodium (Na) so reactive?
guapka [62]
Alkali metals are known for being some of the most reactive metals. This is due in part to their larger atomic radii and low ionization energies. They tend to donate their electrons in reactions and often have an oxidation state of +1. These metals are characterized as being extre

If 2.4 g of n2 gas has a volume of 0.40 l and a pressure of 6.6 atm , what is its kelvin temperature?
Nesterboy [21]

To solve for the absolute temperature, we assume ideal gas behaviour so that we use the equation:

PV = nRT

or T = PV / nR

 

So calculating:

T = [6.6 atm * 0.40 L] / [(2.4g / 28g/mol) * 0.08205746 L atm / mol K]

<span>T = 375.35 K</span>

"Which statement is true about the removal of a terminal phosphate" from ATP? Choose one: A. The reaction is associated with a p
Mamont248 [21]

Answer:

C. The reaction is energetically favorable.

Explanation:

The reaction which shows the removal of the terminal phosphate from the ATP is shown below:

ATP+H_2O\rightarrow ADP+P_i+\ energy

The Gibbs' free energy change of this reaction, \Delta G^0=-7.3\ kcal/mol

Hence, Option A is not correct.

It is a type of hydrolysis reaction in which water is being added to the molecule.

Hence, Option B is not correct.

The Gibbs' free energy change is negative which means that the reaction is energetically favorable.

Option C is correct.
