    Medical Question about reactions in biochemistry

    we assume that we have an exergonic reaction , a substrate going to a product , is the negative ΔG′° the principal reason that the equilibrium favors the product (there is more product than substrate at equilibrium )?, or it is not and that depends on other factors? , thanks .

    To find the reaction in a system at a ring

    Could I ask for a hint as to where to go next with this question please? I've done this first part, to find the reaction on the wall. Here's my diagram: I've labelled the internal forces at B in red. In green I've shown the reaction at the ring. So I need to find sqrt(Rx^2 + Ry^2) = R. So...

    Action Reaction Spring Scale Question

    Here is the image the answer is say 100 but why. Why isn't it 0. Is it because of the pulley but even with the pulleys the tensions in both ropes are 100 N.

    Enthelpy of Reaction and Efficiency of Galvanic Cells

    For electrochemical energy devices such as batteries or fuel cells working reversibly, efficiency is defined as: η=ΔrG⦵/ΔrH⦵ Since cell operates reversibly Gibbs energy change of the system is equal to electrical work done by the cell, so we can instead just use standard Gibbs energy of...
