t or f. thermodynamics is a question of whether or not a reaction CAN happen
|
true
|
|
does thermo tell you how fast?
|
NO
|
|
all that matters in thermodynamics is....
|
initial and final states
|
|
If a system is at equilibrium, __ work can be done
|
no work
|
|
keq
|
[prod]/[react]
|
|
distribution of reactants and products at _____ will be skewd in the direction of the most stable state
|
equilibrium
whichever is more stable will have more |
|
if Keq = 1 what do you know about products and reactants
|
they are exactly equal concs
|
|
if keq is less than one what do you know about products and reactants
|
more reactants than products. That is, the products must have higher free energy so the more stable form (the reactants) will be in a higher concentration
|
|
what is change in Go'
|
biochemist's standard state
conc 1M 1 atm pressure 25C pH 7 the equilibrium ratio that can be used to calculate free energy that is released or consumed in a standard state reaction |
|
what is the univeral gas constant
|
1.987 x 10E-3 kcal/molK
|
|
State the equation.
Go' = |
-RTlnKeq
|
|
So if Keq is >1 what is the sign of G.'
|
G ends up being negative, so this reaction is spontaneous
|
|
state the equations for dG =
|
dGo' + RTlnkeq
|
|
If you reaction is in equilibrium, what is dG?
|
well, RTlnKeq = dGo' and that means dG is zero!
|
|
from what two things does your change of chemical reaction come from
|
enthalpy
entropy |
|
def. measure of the differnece in heat between the products and substrates
|
dH
|
|
what are the units of delta H
|
kcal/mol
|
|
if heat is evolved in a reaction you know that .....
|
dH is negative
|
|
def. the measure of the differnece in randomness between the products and substrates
|
entropy
|
|
what are the unites of entropy
|
kcal/Kmol
|
|
If the products of a reacitona re more random than the reactants, is dS positive or negative?
|
positive if products are more random
|
|
state dG in terms of HTS
|
dH - TdS
|
|
the sign and magnitude of dG results from a tug of war between ___ and ____
|
enthalpy and entropy
|
|
what is dGo' for ATP
|
-7.5 kcal/mol
|
|
why is the equilibrium so tilted toward products?
|
must mean the products are far more stable than the reactants
|
|
for our purposes, a high energy bond has a dGo' of what or lower
|
-5kcal/mol or lower
|
|
what is dGo' of pyrophosphate (phosphate anhydride)
|
-7.5 kcal/mol
like ATP hydrolysis |
|
how does the transition state affect keq?
|
it doesn't!
