A critical reaction in the production of energy in biological systems is the hydrolysis of adenosine triphosphate (ATP) to adeno

sine diphosphate (ADP) as described by ATP(aq) + H2O(l)  ADP(aq) + HPO4-2(aq) for which ΔG°rxn = –30.5 kJ/mol at 37.0°C. Calculate the value of ΔGrxn in a biological cell in which [ATP] = 1.2 x10-2 M, [ADP] = 8.4 x10-3 M, and [HPO4-2] = 2.1x10-3 M.

Answer:

ΔG° of reaction =  -47.3 x 10^{3} J/mol      

Explanation:

As we can see, we have been a particular reaction and Energy values as well.

ΔG° of reaction = -30.5 kJ/mol

Temperature = 37°C.

And we have to calculat the ΔG° of reaction in the biological cell which contains ATP, ADP and HPO4-2:

The first step is to calculate the equilibrium constant for the reaction:

Equilibrium Constant K = \frac{[HPO4-2] x [ADP]}{ATP}

And we have values given for these quantities in the biological cell:

[HP04-2] = 2.1 x 10^{-3} M

[ATP] = 1.2 x 10^{-2} M

[ADP] = 8.4 x 10^{-3} M

Let's plug in these values in the above equation for equilibrium constant:

K = \frac{[2.1x10^{-3}] x [8.4x10^{-3}] }{[1.2 x 10^{-2}] }

K = 1.47 x 10^{-3} M

Now, we have to calculate the ΔG° of reaction for the biological cell:

But first we have to convert the temperature in Kelvin scale.

Temp = 37°C

Temp = 37 + 273

Temp = 310 K

ΔG° of reaction = (-30.5 10^{3}) + (8.314)x (310K)xln(0.00147)

Where 8.314 = value of Gas Constant

ΔG° of reaction = (-30.5 x 10^{3}) + (-16810.68)

ΔG° of reaction = -47.3 x 10^{3} J/mol

Why B-Cl bond is polar? ​
aniked [119]

Answer:

The difference in the electronegativities of chlorine and boron is 3.0 - 2.0 = 1.0 ; the difference in between chlorine and carbon is 3.0 = 2.5 = 0.5 . Consequently, the B-Cl bond is more polar ; the chlorine atom asrries the partial negative charge because it has higher electronegativity .

Explanation:

hope it helps!

What is the most appropriate unit of astronomical distance to represent the distance between an earth an orbiting space station
Reil [10]
Astronauts use "Astronomical Unit" to measure the distance between planets in our solar system "only". To measure long distances like between 2 galaxies, they use "light years". One Astronomical Unit = Average distance between sun and earth which is equal to 149.6 million kilometers. Ping me if you have any doubt.
