Name: ____________________________________(print)Answer the following questions. Use the diagram below to answer questions 1-7. You may work with others and your text book, but the answers you hand in must be in your own words and unique to you. Unless the answer is a diagram, your answers must be typed. Your diagrams must be hand drawn. This is a word document so you can insert you answers, add your name at the top of each page, and print a hard copy. This assignment is worth 10 points. The due date will be announced in class and on Canvas. All assignments will be due at the start of lecture on the assigned due date.I HAVE ABIDED BY THE UNCG Academic Integrity Policy ON THIS ASSIGNMENT. Student’s Signature ________________________________ Date _____1. The endergonic reaction is a chemical reaction that does not occur spontaneously, but by free energy or net energy being absorbed and it is positive.2. The exergonic reaction is a reaction in which it occurs spontaneously by not using energy instead releasing that energy causing it to be negative.3. How much energy is released by the exergonic reaction? -7.3 kcal/mol4. How much energy is required by the endergonic reaction? +3.4 kcal/mol5. The amount of energy lost as entropy is…a. +3.4 kcal/molb. -7.3 kcal/molc. -3.9 kcal/mold. -11.2 kcal/mole. -0.5 kcal/mol6. The amount of energy lost as heat is…a. +3.4 kcal/molb. -7.3 kcal/molc. -3.9 kcal/mold. -11.2 kcal/mole. -0.5 kcal/mol7. True (A) or False (B): An endergonic reaction fuel by the breakdown of ATP to ADP can consume as much as 7.3 kcal/mol of energy. Explain your answer. This statement is false due to the fact that some energy must be left over for heat to be released. 8. What are redox reactions? A redox reaction is a chemical reaction in which transfers electrons between a set of atoms, molecules, and ions. Give an example. Photosynthesis and Respiration everyday life examples.9. In the reaction below, what is oxidized and what is the oxidizing agent? What is being oxidized is the glucose into the pyruvate molecule and the oxidizing agent would be the NAD+.NAD+ + Glucose → NADH2 + Pyruvate10. What is reaction coupling? A reaction coupling is a reaction that requires energy that is given by another reaction. Give an example as a diagram.11. What role does an enzyme play in coupling reactions? The enzyme in a coupling reaction bind or couple energy releasing reactions with energy absorbing
