Question

Determine the direction that each of the reactions will progress. Assume that the reactants and products are present in equimolar amounts. The standard free energy of hydrolysis of ATP is – 30.5 kJ / mol.

Answer 1

Answer:

It would move either left or right

Explanation: Taking assumption that,

Fructose + ATP fructose - 6 - phosphate + ADP (The standard free energy of hydrolysis for fructose-6-phosphate is - 15.9 kJ/mol.) 3 - phosphoglycerate + ATP 1,3 - bisphosphoglycerate + ADP (The standard free energy of hydrolysis for 1,3-bisphosphoglycerate is - 4 9.3 kJ/mol.) pyruvate + ATP phosphoenolpyruvate + ADP (The standard free energy of hydrolysis for phosphoenolpyruvate -is -61.9 kJ/mol.)
