The given question is incomplete. The complete question is as follows.
Citrate synthase catalyzes the reaction
Oxaloacetate + acetyl-CoA
citrate + HS-CoA
The standard free energy change for the reaction is -31.5 kJ*mol^-1
(
a) Calculate the equilibrium constant for this reaction a 37degrees C
Explanation:
(a). It is known that
, relation between change in free energy (
) of a reaction and equilibrium constant (K) is as follows.
where, T = temperature in Kelvin
The given data is as follows.
T = 310 K,
(as 1 kJ = 1000 J)
Now, putting the given values into the above formula as follows.
ln K =
=
ln K = 12.22
K = antilog (12.22)
= 
Therefore, we can conclude that value of equilibrium constant for the given reaction is
.
Mass percentage of a solution is the amount of solute present in 100 g of the solution.
Given data:
Mass of solute H2SO4 = 571.3 g
Volume of the solution = 1 lit = 1000 ml
Density of solution = 1.329 g/cm3 = 1.329 g/ml
Calculations:
Mass of the given volume of solution = 1.329 g * 1000 ml/1 ml = 1329 g
Therefore we have:
571.3 g of H2SO4 in 1329 g of the solution
Hence, the amount of H2SO4 in 100 g of solution= 571.3 *100/1329 = 42.987
Mass percentage of H2SO4 (%w/w) is 42.99 %
