Question 1
a. Calculate the standard free-energy change, deltaG'o, for the reaction in which acetaldehyde is reduced by the biological electron carrier NADH in the reaction acetaldehyde + NADH + H+ → ethanol + NAD+.
b. Then calculate the actual free-energy change, deltaG, when the acetaldehyde is 1.19 M, the NADH is 1.10 M, the ethanol is 0.13 M and the NAD+ is 0.10 M, at 25.70oC and pH = 7. Give the actual free-energy change in kJ/mol to one decimal place.
