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.

Identify the single displacement reaction. 2H 2 + O 2 ⟶ 2H 2O Al 2S 3 ⟶ 2Al + 3S Cl 2 + 2KBr ⟶ 2KCl + Br 2 C 4H 12 + 7O 2 ⟶ 6H 2

Answer: Cl_2+2KBr\rightarrow 2KCl+Br_2

Explanation:

A single displacement reaction is one in which a more reactive element displaces a less reactive element from its salt solution. Thus one element should be different from another element.

Cl_2+2KBr\rightarrow 2KCl+Br_2

Synthesis reaction is defined as the reaction where substances combine in their elemental state to form a single compound.2H_2+O_2\rightarrow 2H_2O

Decomposition reaction is defined as the reaction where a single substance breaks down into two or more simpler substances.

Al_2S_3\rightarrow 2Al+3S

Combustion is a type of chemical reaction in which hydrocarbons burn in the presence of oxygen to form carbon dioxide and water along with heat.
