Bioenergetics (5/14) Flashcards
1
Q
Gibbs free energy
A
change G says how spontaneous
-G is exergonic
2
Q
Exergonic
A
reactants have more energy than products
3
Q
Endergonic
A
products have more energy than reactants
4
Q
∆G0
A
Standard free energy change under standard conditions
5
Q
Gibbs free energy equation
A
∆G= ∆G0 + RT lnQ
Q= [p]/[r]
Q is small, G is small and = more spontaneous
