(Solved): Consider the reaction ATP + pyruvate phosphoenolpyruvate + ADP. The standard Gibbs free energy ...
Consider the reaction ATP + pyruvate ? phosphoenolpyruvate + ADP. The standard Gibbs free energy change for this ATP hydrolysis is ?7.3kcal/mol. The standard Gibbs free energy change for phosphoenolpyruvate hydrolysis is ?14.8kcal/mol. Circle all correct answers: a. ?G? ' will always be negative. b. Keq? ' will be greater than 1 under specified conditions. c. When ATP:ADP ratio is 10 , pyruvate concentration will be higher than phosphoenolpyruvate. d. When ATP:ADP ratio is 10 , phosphoenolpyruvate concentration will be higher than pyruvate.
