So I'm trying to take a practice test since I have the real one coming up, but I could not find the answer key to this, I was wondering if anyone could chip in on this? - Thanks


1.Which of the following statements about spontaneity is correct?
1.All reactions with ? GEN < 0 will be spontaneous.
2.All reactions which have ? H < 0 will be spontaneous.
3.All reactions for which ? G is not equal to zero will be spontaneous.
4.All reactions for which have ? G < 0 will be spontaneous.
5.All reactions for which have ? S < 0 will be spontaneous.
2.For the reaction
A º B + C
? GEN = -2.00 kcal/mol. What is ? G at 25EC if the concentration of each of the three reacting species is 1 M? (NOTE: 2.3 X 1.987 X 298 = 1.36; log 1.36 = 0.13)
1.-3.36 kcal/mol
2.-2.13 kcal/mol
3.-2.00 kcal/mol
4.+2.00 kcal/mol
5.+2.13 kcal/mol
3.An important characteristic of living systems is that
1.They are always at equilibrium.
2.They are perturbed from equilibrium only when experiencing stress.
3.They are never at equilibrium.
4.They are at equilibrium only when metabolic activity is low.
5.The laws of thermodynamics do not apply.
4.All the following statements about ATP are correct EXCEPT
1.ATP has two phosphoanhydride bonds.
2.ATP has one phosphate ester bond.
3.ATP has a ? GEN of hydrolysis.
4.ATP is usually complexed with Mg2+.
5.ATP has three high energy bonds.
5.All the following compounds are high energy compounds EXCEPT
1.acetyl coenzyme A
2.creatine phosphate
3.glucose-6-phosphate
4.phosphoenolpyruvate
5.ADP
6.The large negative value for ? GEN of hydrolysis of phosphoenolpyruvate is primarily due to
1.hydrolysis of a phosphoanhydride bond
2.hydrolysis of a phosphate ester bond
3.the combined effect of hydrolysis and subsequent conversion of the keto form of pyruvate to the enol form
4.the combined effect of hydrolysis and subsequent conversion of the enol form of pyruvate to the keto form
5.hydrolysis of a thiol ester bond
7.For glucokinase, Km = 10 mM, while for hexokinase, Km < 0.1 mM. These data are consistent with which of the following statements?

2.Glucokinase acts only at high blood glucose levels.
3.Glucokinase plays a major role in glucose metabolism only at low levels of blood glucose.
