-An important reaction in the production of energy from sugars (glycolysis) is the reduction of pyruvate to lactate by NADH.
pyruvate + NADH + H+(aq) lactate + NAD+ rG '=?
Given the following reduction potentials,
NAD+ + H+ + 2e- NADH E ' = -0.320 V
Pyruvate + 2H+ + 2e- lactate E ' = -0.190 V
Calculate the standard Gibbs free energy (at pH 7) for the reduction of pyruvate to lactate by NADH.( rG '=nFE '; F = 96485 C/mol electrons)
A) 98.4 kJ/mol-rxn
