CHEM 142A Study Guide - Quiz Guide: Atp Hydrolysis, Equilibrium Constant, Heterotroph
Document Summary
Students should be able to: compare and contrast the use and production of oxygen, carbon dioxide, and nitrogen by autotrophs and heterotrophs, compare and contrast the convergent/divergent and linear/circular nature of anabolic and catabolic pathways. Section 13. 1: be able to predict the actual free-energy changes of a biochemical reaction (and the corresponding equilibrium constant), given the standard free energy change and concentrations of reactants and products. Section 13. 2: mechanistically distinguish between the five types of enzyme reactions (carbon-carbon bond formation; internal rearrangements; free radical reactions; group transfers; oxidations/reductions). Section 13. 4: to convert the driving force for a reaction deriving from electromotive force (e) into free energy changes, compare and contrast the structure/role/mechanism of action of the common coenzymes,
