Free Energy (G):
glucose-6-phosphate —> glucose + phosphate + 3.3 kcal
- What is the value of the change in energy for the reactants, in kcal/mol?
- Is the reaction spontaneous?
- How would you expect decreasing the concentration of glucose-6-phosphate to affect the reaction rate?
- How would removing the enzyme affect the reaction rate?
- -3.3 kcal/mol
- Yes, because the change in energy is negative(-).
