TRUE or FALSE? Please explain each answer!
a) The more negative the ∆H value of a reaction the faster itis.
b) The more negative the ∆G value of a reaction the faster itis.
c) If you compare two reactions, the one with the lowestactivation energy is faster (tricky!)
d) A catalyst is a substance that lowers the ∆G value of areaction so it becomes more spontaneous.
e)Enzymes are proteins that lower the activation energies ofreactions in the cell.
f) ATP hydrolysis is thermodynamically favorable but thereaction is slow in the absence of the enzyme specialized incatalyzing this reaction.
