For the reaction given below, the standard change in free energy has a positive value.
A+B<-->C+D
Changing the conditions of the reaction can alter the value of the change in free energy (?G). Sort the following conditions as to whether each would decrease the free energy value, increase the free energy value, or not change the free energy value for the reaction. For each change, assume that the other variables are kept constant.

a. Adding a catalystdecrease the free energy value, increase the free energy value, or not change the free energy
b. increasing [C] and [D] decrease the free energy value, increase the free energy value, or not change the free energy
c. Coupling with ATP hydrolysis decrease the free energy value, increase the free energy value, or not change the free energy
d. Increasing [A] and [B] decrease the free energy value, increase the free energy value, or not change the free energy

Several kinds of bears are found on earth. most bears are brown or black, but one type of bear, the polar bear, is white. what process led to this difference in fur color? explain your answer.

Lem 2 the data below are for the system ethyl propyl ether (1)-chloroform (2) at 0.5 bar. use the data to answer the following questions (all questions refer to p d 0: 5 bar). a) what are the boiling points of the pure components at 0.5 bar? b) a mixture with the overall composition z1 d 0: 1 is brought to 47.6ä±c, 0.5 bar. what is the phase? c) 100 mole of a mixture with z1 d 0: 1 (state a) is mixed with 22 mole of pure ethyl propyl ether vapor (state b). the mixing takes place at 47.6 ä±c, 0.5. bar. what is the phase of the resulting mixture (state c)? if the state is a v/l mixture report the number of moles and mole fractions in each phase. d) plot the txy graph and show states a, b and c. the graph must be done by computer and should be properly annotated. ethyl propyl ether (1) - chloroform (2) at 0.5 bar t ( ä±c) x1 y1 t ( ä±c) x1 y1 42.9 0.000 0.000 49.0 0.470 0.455 43.0 0.020 0.010 49.1 0.520 0.520 43.9 0.065 0.029 48.9 0.567 0.592 45.4 0.156 0.089 48.3 0.652 0.720 46.4 0.215 0.142 47.6 0.745 0.815 47.6 0.296 0.223 46.7 0.822 0.872 48.3 0.362 0.302 45.7 0.907 0.937 48.7 0.410 0.375 44.6 1.000

In an effort to address concerns about global warming, a power plant in portland, oregon is designed to take all of its exhaust gases from its boilers and recycle the co2 using the solvay process to make sodium hydrogen carbonate. the reaction is shown below. nh3(g) + h2o(l) + co2(g) + nacl(aq) → nahco3(aq) + nh4cl(aq) how many liters each of nh3 and co2 (both at stp) would be consumed to produce 3.00 kg of sodium bicarbonate? the volume of both nh3 and co2 would be
