The value of `DeltaG^(ϴ)` for the phosphorylation of glucose in glycolysis is 13.8 kJ/mol. Find the value of Kc at 298 K.

Explanation

`DeltaG^(@)=13.8kJ//"mol"=13.8xx10^(3)J//"mol"`
Also `DeltaG^(@)=-RT lnk_(c)`
Hence ln `K_(c)==-13.8xx10^(3)`J/mol
`=(8.314 "J mol^(-1)K^(-1)xx298K)`
ln `K_(c)=(5.569`
`K_(c)=e^(-5.569)`
`K_(c)=3.81xx10^(-3)`.
