Rank these reactions from least to most energetically favorable.
mafiozo [28]

Answer:

From least to most energetically favorable, the reactions are:

Glucose to Glucose-6-P (least) ; Glucose-6-P to Fructose-6-P; ATP to ADP and Pi; PEP to pyruvate (most favorable)

Explanation:

ΔG represents the free energy change that occurs during a chemical reaction. A reaction with negative free energy change is exergonic and spontaneous. Negative free energy change represents the fact that reactants have more free energy than products. The excess of the energy is released during the reaction and makes it a spontaneous process.

q`On the other hand, a reaction with positive free energy change is endothermic and non-spontaneous. These thermodynamically unfavorable reactions are coupled with other exergonic reactions to make them occur.

Among the given example, PEP to pyruvate has the highest negative free energy change (−14.8 kcal/mol) and therefore, is energetically most favorable. On the other hand, "Glucose to Glucose-6-P" has the highest positive free energy charge (+3.3 kcal/mol) making it energetically the most unfavorable reaction.

The free energy for the oxidation of glucose to CO₂ and water is -686 kcal/mol and the free energy for the reduction of NAD+ to
Archy [21]

Answer: The main reason why only 2 molecules of NADH is formed during glycolysis when it appears that as many as a dozen could be formed is because during glycolysis,most of the free energy that are available from the oxidation of glucose remains in one of the products of glycolysis known as pyruvate which acts like glucose but doesn't undergo metabolism.

Glycolysis is the splitting of sugar molecules into useable/ manageable forms,it can also be seen as the aerobic catabolism of sugar inorder to produce energy in the form of ATP,NADH and PYRUVATE.The following are the products of glycolysis; pyruvate,2 molecules of ATP and 2molecules of NADH.

Pyruvate are used in aerobic respiration or anaerobic respiration if oxygen is not available.
