Question 10

(Multiple Choice)

Which choice below correctly rationalized whether this pair of reactions is coupled?
A + B --> C + D ( Δ\Delta G = +5.4 kcal/mole)
D + F --> G + H ( Δ\Delta G = -4.4 kcal/mole)


A)The equations above do not represent coupled reactions because the overall Δ\Delta G is positive.
B)The equations above do not represent coupled reactions because the overall Δ\Delta G is negative.
C)The equations represent coupled reactions because the overall Δ\Delta G is positive.
D)The equations represent coupled reactions because the overall Δ\Delta G is negative.
