Answer:
2. ΔG is zero, ΔH is positive, and ΔS is positive
Explanation:
When the ice is being converted to water ate 0ºC and 1 atm, there is an equilibrium between the solid and the liquid. At the equilibrium point, ΔG (the free energy) is zero. It is negative for spontaneous reactions and positive for nonspontaneous reactions.
For the phase change happens, the ice must absorb heat from the surroundings, so it's an endothermic reaction, and because of that ΔH (the enthalpy) must be positive. It is negative for exothermic reactions.
In the liquid state, the molecules have more energy and the randomness is higher than the solid-state. The entropy (S) is the measure of the randomness, so if it's increasing, ΔS must be positive.
C because
Explanation Plato
Answer:1.
Explanation: This reaction is catalyzes by pyruvate dehydrogenase. Pyruvate being the end product of glycolysis has many fates after glycolysis,one of which is to enter the TCA(Tricarboxylic acid cycle) cycle. It is first converted to actetate by the action of pyruvate dehydrogenase. This enzyme converts pyruvate to acetate releasing CO2 and NADH because this oxidative decarboxylation of pyruvate is coupled with reduction of NAD+ which can feed into the electron transport chain.
