Explanation:

Chemical weathering is caused by rain water reacting with the mineral grains in rocks to form new minerals (clays) and soluble salts. These reactions occur particularly when the water is slightly acidic.

How does adding an atom affect the position of existing atoms or lone pairs?

Paha777 [63]

Adding an atom will increase the repulsion between existing atoms and lone pairs. Added atom will result in bond pair-bond pair and bond pair-lone pair repulsion. The magnitude of the lone pair-bond pair repulsion is greater than the bond pair-bond pair repulsion. The added atom will change the electron geometry and bring about a distortion in the molecular geometry.

Assume the hydrolysis of ATP proceeds with ΔG′° = –30 kJ/mol. ATP + H2O → ADP + Pi Which expression gives the ratio of ADP to AT

Andru [333]

Answer:

$6.14\cdot 10^{-6}$

Explanation:

Firstly, write the expression for the equilibrium constant of this reaction:

$K_{eq} = \frac{[ADP][Pi]}{ATP}$

Secondly, we may relate the change in Gibbs free energy to the equilibrium constant using the equation below:

$\Delta G^o = -RT ln K_{eq}$

From here, rearrange the equation to solve for K:

$K_{eq} = e^{-\frac{\Delta G^o}{RT}}$

Now we know from the initial equation that:

$K_{eq} = \frac{[ADP][Pi]}{ATP}$

Let's express the ratio of ADP to ATP:

$\frac{[ADP]}{[ATP]} = \frac{[Pi]}{K_{eq}}$

Substitute the expression for K:

$\frac{[ADP]}{[ATP]} = \frac{[Pi]}{K_{eq}} = \frac{[Pi]}{e^{-\frac{\Delta G^o}{RT}}}$

Now we may use the values given to solve:

$\frac{[ADP]}{[ATP]} = \frac{[Pi]}{K_{eq}} = \frac{[Pi]}{e^{-\frac{\Delta G^o}{RT}}} = [Pi]e^{\frac{\Delta G^o}{RT}} = 1.0 M\cdot e^{\frac{-30 kJ/mol}{2.5 kJ/mol}} = 6.14\cdot 10^{-6}$
