The standard free energy change for a reaction can be calculated using the equation ΔG∘′=−nFΔE∘′ ΔG∘′=−nFΔE∘′ where nn is the nu
mber of electrons transferred, FF is Faraday's constant, 96.5 kJ·mol−1·V−1, and ΔE∘′ΔE∘′ is the difference in reduction potential. For each of the given reactions, determine the number of electrons transferred (n)(n) and calculate standard free energy (ΔG∘′)(ΔG∘′) . Consider the half-reactions and overall reaction for reaction 1. half-reactions:fumarate 2−+2H+CoQH2↽−−⇀succinate−↽−−⇀CoQ+2H+ half-reactions:fumarate−+2H+↽−−⇀succinate2−CoQH2↽−−⇀CoQ+2H+ overall reaction:fumarate2−+CoQH2↽−−⇀succinate2−+CoQΔE∘′=−0.009 V
The reaction involves the transfer of two electrons in the form of hydride ions from reduced coenzyme Q, CoQH₂ to fumarae to form succinate and oxidized coenzyme Q, CoQ.
The overall equation of reaction is as follows:
fumarate²⁻ + CoQH₂ ↽⇀ succinate²⁻ + CoQ ; ΔE∘′=−0.009 V
Using the equation for standard free energy change; ΔG°′ = −nFΔE°′
where n = 2; F = 96.5 KJ.V⁻¹.mol⁻¹; ΔE°′ = 0.009 V
If each gas sample has the same temperature and pressure, which has the greatest volume? Since hydrogen gas has the lowest molar mass of the set, 1 g will have the greatest number of moles and therefore the greatest volume. What is the Ideal Gas Law?
