Summary Introduction

To explain: The way in which changes in free energy in a reaction are related to changes in entropy and enthalpy.

Introduction: Under conditions of a biochemical reaction, free energy (G) is defined as the amount of energy available to perform work. Entropy is defined as the degree of randomness in a system and enthalpy is defined as the total potential energy of a system.

Define potential energy and kinetic energy and provide two specific examples of each. Explain how one form of energy can be converted into another. Will some energy be lost during this conversion? If so, what form will it take?
What is the most common form of kinetic energy that is released from chemical energy in chemical reactions?
In a transition state diagram, which of the following are features of the transition state (TS)? There may be more than one correct answer, select all that apply. The change in energy in ground state to the transition state represents the Gibbs Free Energy If the reaction is reversible, the TS will only progress forward to form products The TS occupies a trough The TS is associated with the highest energy The TS occupies the highest peak
