Which of the following statements is most directly described by the first law of thermodynamics? A B с D The synthesis of highly-ordered biomolecules is coupled with the production of heat energy. All energy-transferring processes involve the loss of some of that energy into an unus- able form. Enzymes reduce the activation energy of chemical energy by stabilizing substrates at their transition states. The energy for the synthesis of glucose is provided by the absorption of light energy in chlorophyll pigments.

The second law of thermodynamics, in a very general sense, states that entropy (S) is always increasing. ASuniverse AS system + AS surroundings > 0 When phospholipids are dispersed in an aqueous solution, they will often form more ordered structures in the form of micelles, liposomes, or lipid bilayers. This behavior seemingly contradicts the second law of thermodynamics. Why is this behavior in agreement with the second law of thermodynamics? Liposome Micelle Bilayer sheet

Name 3 nonrenewable sources of energy. In your own words, please discuss at least 3 pros and 3 cons of each,

On the free energy diagram shown, label the intermediate (s) and transition state(s). Is the reaction thermodynamically favorable? Reaction.

Consider the following free energy diagram for an uncatalyzed and enzyme-catalyzed reaction. Select all the statements that are true. Without enzyme With enzyme A+B Time AB Oa. The reaction is now spontaneous due to the addition of enzyme b. The rate of the enzyme catalyzed reaction is faster than the uncatalyzed reaction O C. The reaction is exergonic O d. The change in free energy for the reaction is greater in the catalyzed reaction, compared to the uncatalyzed reaction e. The enzyme stabilizes the transition state for the reaction Released Energy pes

Which of the following best describes a thermodynamically favorable (spontaneous) chemical reaction?  It has a ΔG that is greater than zero and is endergonic. It has a ΔG that is greater than zero and is exergonic. It has a ΔG that is less than zero and is endergonic. It has a ΔG that is less than zero and is exergonic.

A metabolic reaction requires an exergonic reaction to provide energy for an energonic reaction. A True False
