The reaction converting glycerol to glycerol-3-phosphate is energetically unfavorable by 9.2 kJ. The reaction of ATP with water

to yield ADP, hydrogen phosphate ion, and hydrogen ion is energetically favorable by 30.5 kJ. These reactions are coupled so that the overall process is energetically favorable. What is ΔG for the overall process?

Answer:

ΔG for overall reaction :  -21.3 kJ

Explanation:

Reaction of the conversion of glycerol to glycerol-3-phosphate is unfavorable and thus is coupled with second reaction that involves the conversion of ATP to ADP which is highly energetically favorable.

Reaction 1:  Glycerol + HPO₄²⁻ ⇒ Glycerol-3-phosphate + water

Reaction 2:             ATP  + H₂O ⇒ ADP + HPO₄²⁻ + H⁺

ΔG for reaction 1 : 9.2 kJ (non-spontaneous : Positive value)

ΔG for reaction 2 : -30.5 kJ (spontaneous : Negative value)

The overall coupled reaction is:

<u>Glycerol + ATP ⇒ Glycerol-3-phosphate + ADP + H⁺</u>

<u>ΔG for overall reaction : 9.2 kJ + (-30.5 kJ) = -21.3 kJ</u>

negative sign signifies that the overall reaction is spontaneous.

Galina-37 [17]

Answer:

C. The product must solve the problem for which it was designed.

Explanation:

Technological design is the study, development and application of technological process with the intent of designing a product to solve required problem.The process could be based on the use of a computer.

Generally, technological process and development always tend to design a problem solver product. Through this process, more new technologies are produced.

Therefore in technological process, the product must solve the problem for which it was designed.
