ΔG0' V ↔ W ?4.0 W ↔ X +0.4 X ↔ Y ?3.4 Y ↔ Z +5.7 From the values of ΔG0' given in the table, which compound in the overall metabolic pathway V ↔ W ↔ X ↔ Y ↔ Z will accumulate in the largest amount at equilibrium? A) V B) W C) X D) Y E) Z please explain the ans 0 - ArchivalUser - 02-09-2007 i just guess......X.......... 0 - ArchivalUser - 02-09-2007 i dont understnad this, could someone please explain this in a simplified way 0 - ArchivalUser - 02-09-2007 i have no idea about thsi type of question...somepeople were saying there is a similar question in lippincot, but i only read kaplan...so i have no clue.....I would chose Y, cause the Y-> Z reaction needs a lot of energy, and since X->Y doesnt need energy, Y accumulates. But this is just my guess.... |
