calculate the Gibbs free energy change for the following reaction

OpenStudy (anonymous):

\[ATP \rightarrow ADP+ P_{i}\] if the reaction occurs at 68 degrees F and the change in heat \[\Delta H\] = 19,070 cal and the change in entropy = 90 cal/ degree K

Would this help? http://www.chem.tamu.edu/class/majors/tutorialnotefiles/gibbs.htm

OpenStudy (anonymous):

no not really

OpenStudy (wolfe8):

Gibbs Free Energy (G) - The energy associated with a chemical reaction that can be used to do work. The free energy of a system is the sum of its enthalpy (H) plus the product of the temperature (Kelvin) and the entropy (S) of the system: G=H-TS That basically says it. You have H, T, and S.

what does this cal mean?

OpenStudy (wolfe8):

cal is the unit for energy or heat change.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

so the cal part doesn't really matter I still plug it in the same

OpenStudy (wolfe8):

Well since both H and S use cal, yes, you just plug in.

I can't translate the temperature. my calculator is being stupid
