Lecture 2/3-properties Of Biological Molecules I&II Flashcards
Standard free-E* change equation
Delta G = -(R)(T)ln(Keq)
Gibbs Free E* equation
Delta G=Delta G*‘+ln([Prod]/[React])
Three types of non-covalent bonds
Hydrophobic interactions, van der Waal’s, electrostatic interactions
What produces the “hydrophobic effect?”
Water has a dipole moment, which results in a slight (+) and (-) charge on water. This allows for hydrogen bonding
How can one drive a reaction to the product side? What is this manipulation called?
Add reactant/remove products - Le Chatlier’s Principle (“Law of Mass Action”); also, add heat
The reaction of Glucose to Glucose-6-phosphate occurs by the enzyme hexokinase. What is the Delta-G prime for this reaction if there is 1 mole of glucose, and 1000 moles of G-6-P?
Delta G’ = -RT(ln[prod]/[react]) = -8.31(310)(ln[1000]/[1]]) = -2576.1xln([1000]/[1]]) = -17.8kJ/mol
The reaction of Fructose-6-P to Fructose-1,6-bisphosphate occurs by the enzyme phosphofructokinase. What is the Delta-G prime for this reaction if there is 100 mole of F-6-P, and 1 mole of F-1,6-BP?
Delta G’ = -RT(ln[prod]/[react]) = -8.31(310)ln([100]/[1]) = -11863.4 Jmol^-1/1000 = -11.9 kJ/mol
The reaction of Fructose-6-P to Fructose-1,6-bisphosphate occurs by the enzyme phosphofructokinase. What is the Delta-G prime for this reaction if there is 10 mole of F-6-P, and 1 mole of F-1,6-BP?
Delta G’ = -RT(ln[prod]/[react])

Delta G’ = -RT(ln[prod]/[react])
What is the pH of a solution acetoacetic acid? The [A]=100 and [HA]=1 (pKa=3.58)
pH=pKa+log([A]/[HA] pH=3.58 + log[100]/[1] pH=3.58+2 pH=5.58
What is the pH of a solution acetoacetic acid? The [A]=1 and [HA]=1 (pKa=3.58)
pH=pKa+log([A]/[HA] pH=3.58+log([1]/[1]) pH=3.58+0 pH=3.58

pH=pKa+log([A]/[HA] pH=3.58+log([1]/[100]) pH=3.58-2 pH=1.58
Energy can neither be created nor destroyed, only changed
First law of thermodynamics
The entropy of an isolated system not in equillibrium must increase
Second law of thermodynamics
