The equilibrium constant for isomerization reaction is \boxed{9.615}

Further Explanation:

The standard Gibbs free energy change in a reaction \left( {{{\Delta {\text{G}}_{{\text{rxn}}}^{{^\circ }}} \right) is the difference of sum of the standard free energies of formation of product molecules and sum of standard free energies of formation of reactant molecules at the standard conditions. The formula used to calculate the value of standard Gibbs free energy  change for a reaction \left( {{{\Delta {\text{G}}_{{\text{rxn}}}^{{^\circ }}} \right) is as follows:

\Delta\text{G}_{\text{rxn}}^{\circ}=\sum\text{n}\Delta\text{G}_{\text{f}(\text{products})}^{\circ}-\sum\text{m}\Delta\text{G}_{\text{f}(\text{reactants})}^{\circ}

Here, n is the stoichiometric coefficients of products, and m are the stoichiometric coefficients of reactants in a balanced chemical equation.

The formula to determine the relationship between change in standard Gibbs free energy \left( \Delta{\text{G}^{\circ}} \right) and equilibrium constant \left({\text{K}}\right) is given as follows:

{\Delta }}{{\text{G}}^{{^\circ }}} = - {\text{RTlnK}}       ......(1)

Here,

\Delta{\text{G}^{\circ} is the standard Gibbs free energy change.

{\text{R} is the gas constant.

{\text{T}} is the temperature in Kelvin.

{\text{K}} is the equilibrium constant.

The isomerization of glucose-1-phosphate to fructose-6-phosphate occurs in 2 steps:  

The reaction of step 1 is as follows:

{\text{glucose - 1 - phosphate}} \to {\text{glucose - 6 - phosphate}}

                                       ......(2)

\Delta{\text{G}^{\circ}_{1} for equation (2) is  - 7.28\;{\text{kJ/mol}}

The reaction of step 2 is as follows:

{\text{fructose - 6 - phosphate}} \to {\text{glucose - 6 - phosphate}}

                                                   ......(3)

\Delta{\text{G}^{\circ}_{2} for equation (3) is  - 1.67\;{\text{kJ/mol}}

Reverse the reaction of step 2.

{\text{glucose - 6 - phosphate}} \to {\text{frutcose - 6 - phosphate}}

                                                ......(4)

\Delta{\text{G}^{\circ}_{3} for equation (4) is + 1.67\;{\text{kJ/mol}}

Add equation (1) and (3) to get the final equation.

{\text{glucose - 1 - phosphate}} \to {\text{frutcose - 6 - phosphate}}

To calculate \Delta {\text{G}}_{{\text{rxn}}}^{^\circ }}, add \Delta{\text{G}^{\circ}_{1} and \Delta{\text{G}^{\circ}_{3} as follows:  

\Delta{\text{G}^{\circ}_{\text{rxn}}=\Delta{\text{G}^{\circ}_{1}+\Delta{\text{G}^{\circ}_{3}                       ......(5)

Substitute - 7.28\;{\text{kJ/mol}} for \Delta{\text{G}^{\circ}_{1} and + 1.67\;{\text{kJ/mol}} for \Delta{\text{G}^{\circ}_{3} in equation (5).

\begin{aligned}\Delta {\text{G}}_{{\text{rxn}}}^{{^\circ }} &=  - 7.28\;{\text{kJ/mol + }} + 1.67\;{\text{kJ/mol}}\\{\text{}}&= - 5.61\;{\text{kJ/mol}}\\\end{aligned}

For equilibrium constant (K), rearrange equation (1)

{\text{K}}={\text{e}}\frac{-\Delta{\text{G}}^{\circ}}{\text{RT}}    ......(6)

Substitute - 5.61\;{\text{kJ/mol}} for \Delta{\text{G}^{\circ},8.314\;{\text{J/mol}} \cdot {\text{K}} for R and 298\;{\text{K}} for T in equation (6)

\begin{aligned} {\text{K}}&= {{\text{e}}^{\frac{{ - \left( { - 5.61\;{\text{kJ/mol}}} \right)}}{{\left( {8.314\;{\text{J/mol}} \cdot {\text{K}}} \right)\left( {\frac{{{\text{1J}}}}{{1000{\text{kJ}}}}} \right)\left( {298\;{\text{K}}} \right)}}}}\\&= {{\text{e}}^{2.2634}}\\&= 9.615\\\end{aligned}

The equilibrium constant for the reaction is 9.615.

We cannot solve this problem without using empirical data. These reactions have already been experimented by scientists. The standard Gibb's free energy, ΔG°, (occurring in standard temperature of 298 Kelvin) are already reported in various literature. These are the known ΔG° for the appropriate reactions.

<span>glucose-1-phosphate⟶glucose-6-phosphate          ΔG∘=−7.28 kJ/mol
fructose-6-phosphate⟶glucose-6-phosphate          ΔG∘=−1.67 kJ/mol
</span>
Therefore, the reaction is a two-step process wherein glucose-6-phosphate is the intermediate product.

glucose-1-phosphate⟶glucose-6-phosphate⟶fructose-6-phosphate 

In this case, you simply add the ΔG°. However, since we need the reverse of the second reaction to end up with the terminal product, fructose-6-phosphate, you'll have to take the opposite sign of ΔG°.

ΔG°,total = −7.28 kJ/mol  + 1.67 kJ/mol = -5.61 kJ/mol

Then, the equation to relate ΔG° to the equilibrium constant K is

ΔG° = -RTlnK, where R is the gas constant equal to 0.008317 kJ/mol-K.
-5.61 kJ./mol = -(0.008317 kJ/mol-K)(298 K)(lnK)
lnK = 2.2635
K = e^2.2635
K = 9.62

How many electrons would be found in the Ion who’s symbol is I-
Vesnalui [34]

Answer:

54

Explanation:

Given symbol of the element:

                   I⁻

Number of electrons found in an ion with the symbol:

  This is a iodine ion:

         For an atom of iodine:

                   Electrons  = 53

                   Protons  = 53

                   Neutrons  = 74

An ion of iodine is one that has lost or gained electrons.

For this one, we have a negatively charged ion which implies that the number of electrons is 1 more than that of the protons.

  So, number of electrons  = 53 + 1  = 54

The number of electrons in this ion is 54

describe in general terms an experiment to determine the molal freezing point depression constant kf of water. Assume the availa
Dvinal [7]
A solution (in this experiment solution of NaNO₃) freezes at a lower temperature than does the pure solvent (deionized water). The higher the solute concentration (sodium nitrate), freezing point depression of the solution will be greater.
Equation describing the change in freezing point: 
ΔT = Kf · b · i.
ΔT - temperature change from pure solvent to solution.
Kf - the molal freezing point depression constant.
b -  molality (moles of solute per kilogram of solvent).
i - Van’t Hoff Factor.
First measure freezing point of pure solvent (deionized water). Than make solutions of NaNO₃ with different molality and measure separately their freezing points. Use equation to calculate Kf.
