The value of ΔG°′ for the conversion of dihydroxyacetone phosphate to glyceraldehyde-3-phosphate (GAP) is +7.53 kJ/mol . If the concentration of dihydroxyacetone phosphate at equilibrium is 1.85 mM 1.85 mM , what is the concentration of glyceraldehyde-3-phosphate? Assume a temperature of 25.0°C .

Concentration of  glyceraldehyde-3-phosphate is 0.0886mM

Explanation:

Get K from the expression exp(ΔG/-RT) = K

Where  

ΔG = Gibbs free energy = 7.53 kJ/ mol = 7.53 * 10^3 J/mol

T = 250C = 273 +25 = 298 K

R = 8.3145 J(mol.K)

K = exp(7530/(-298*8.3145)

K = 4.79*10^-2

NB: K = (conc of products)/(conc of reactants)

From the question

dihydroxyacetone phosphate is the reactant while glyceraldehyde-3-phosphate is the product

4.70*10^-2 = (conc. Of products/1.85mM)

Conc of products = (4.70*10^-2)*1.85

Conc. Of products = 0.0886mM

answer is a
