Answer 1

Answer:

-30.7 kj/mol

Explanation:

The standard free energy for the given reaction that is the hydrolysis of ATP is calculated using the formula:  ∆Go ’= -RTln K’eq

where,  

R = -8.315 J / mo

T = 298 K

For reaction,

1. K′eq1=270,

∆Go ’= -RTln K’eq

= - 8.315 x 298 x ln 270

=  - 8.315 x 298 x 5.59

= - 13,851.293 J / mo

= - 13.85 kj/mol

2. K′eq2=890

∆Go ’= -RTln K’eq

= - 8.315 x 298 x ln 890

=  - 8.315 x 298 x 6.79

=  - 16.82 kj/mol

therefore, total standard free energy

= - 13.85 + (-16.82)

=  -30.7 kj/mol

Thus, -30.7 kj/mol is the correct answer.
