6. Which of these statement aren't true about steady state? (about biological systems

  • System produces work and is irreversible
  • The thermodynamic system is open
  • Entropy is not in maximum but change in entropy is apprx. constant
  • It is an equilibrium of input and output of substances/energy
  • The equation is at equilibrium
  • Gibbs is not minimum and chnage in gibbs is approx constant

7. Which of these statements is not related to entropy

  • Entropy increases until equilibrium is reached in an isolated system
  • Entropy never decreases in an isolated system
  • Inequality of Clausius - (when energy changes form- some part is lost as entropy)
  • At equlibrium entropy always decreases in an isolated sytsem
  • An Isolated system spontaneously passes to the most probable state (a macroscopic state with the highest no. of microscopic state)
  • Change in S> change in H / T
  • S= Kb ln W

8. Which of these do not affect reaction rate?

  • Temperature
  • Pressure
  • Physical state of compounds (are of contact between different phases)
  • Conc of reactants (same phase)

9. Which of these systems is incorrect?

  • Isolated system - Matter and energy not exchanged with the surroundings
  • Closed system - Matter and energy not exchanged with the surroundings
  • Open System - exchange of matter and energy with the surroundings

10. What is a catabolic pathway in terms of Gibbs energy?

  • Change in Gibbs > 0 endogonic pathways eg biosynthesis
  • Change in Gibbs < 0 exergonic pathways eg degradation of nutrients to obtain available energy
  • Change in Gibbs < 0 exergonic pathways eg biosynthesis
  • Change in Gibbs > 0 endogonic pathways eg degradation of nutrients to obtain available energy

11. Which of these is not a feature of spontaneous reaction?

  • An e.g osmosis, expansion of compressed gas
  • When spontaneous reaction proceeds - energy is released
  • The reversion of the sponstaneous process is unreal
  • During Spontaneous process - the total energy increases
  • Spontaneous reaction proceeds until equilibrium is reached

12. If Q

  • Change in Gibbs < 0 And the reaction will go from right to left
  • Change in Gibbs < 0 And the reaction will go from left to right (spontaneous)
  • Change in Gibbs > 0 And the reaction will go from left to right (spontaneous)
  • Change in Gibbs > 0 And the reaction will go from right to left

13. In terms of the system - change in H > 0 - means...

  • That the system has gained energy (endothermic)
  • That the system has lost energy (endothermic)
  • That the system has gained energy (exothermic)
  • That the system has lost energy (exothermic)

14. Which of these is NOT an expression for Change in Gibbs energy?

  • ΔG=ΔG0+RTlnQ
  • ΔG = ΔU + QW
  • ΔG=ΔH−TΔS
  • ΔG=−nFE (Faraday's constant for redox reactions)
  • ΔG=∑ΔG(f-products)−∑ΔG(f-reactants)

15. which of these is not true about isolated systems?

  • It can spontaneous pass to the most probable state.
  • An example is a biological live system.
  • A system which does not exchange matter or energy

16. What is the pressure volume work done ON a system equation?

  • Change in U = Q + p(Change in V)
  • Change in U = Q + W
  • Change in U = Q - p(Change in V)
  • Change in U = W + p(Change in V)

17. Which of these does change in Gibbs energy NOT depend on?

  • Temperature and pressure
  • The useful work
  • Change in entropy and enthalpy
  • Concentration of reactants and products
  • On their chemical constitutions

18. Which of these biochemical reactions does not require energy?

  • Motion - muscle work
  • Passive transport of ions and molecules
  • Maintainence of temp
  • Synthesis of biological compounds
  • Electrical activity of the nervous system

19. Why does in liquids the Change in U approximately equals to Change in H when volume pressure work occcurs?

  • Because energy in solids is negligible
  • Because pressure in liquids is negligible
  • Because energy in liquids is negligible
  • Because pressure in solids is negligible

20. Which of these is not standard state?

  • 298 K
  • 1 mol/l
  • 273 C
  • 101 325 Pa
