Delta G is the change in Gibbs free energy. Gibbs Free energy is defined as:-

G= H-TS

at constant temperature

so the factors ar the change in enthalpy (H) and entropy (S)

If you double the amount of enzyme what happens to delta G?

enzymes dont affect the delta G, they only lower the activation energy. Therefore, the delta G stays the same

When a chemical reaction has a negative delta G is the reaction exothermic or endothermic?

When a chemical reaction has a negative delta G, the reaction is exothermic because delta G is the change in energy of a system and the change in its entropy. If the effect of a reaction is to reduce G, the process will be spontaneous so delta G is negative. Hope this helps :)


What conditions make delta G always positive?

G is always positive when enthalpy increases and entropy decreases.


How do friction and gravity relate?

The magnitude of friction is proportional to the magnitude of the normal force which is proportional to the magnitude of gravity(The magnitude of the normal force is indirectly proportional to the magnitude of gravity.). The magnitude of the normal force, N, compared to gravity, G, on angle z, is: N=cos(z)*G On a flat surface. N=G The coefficient of friction, whether static or kinetic, f is therefore: N=cos(z)*G*f


Is cellular respiration a negative or positive delta g?

Photosynthesis is a positive delta G as it produces more free energy than it uses. The overall result of the Gibbs equations shows that delta G is positive


What is delta h in the equation delta g delta h - t delta?

Does the order of adding vectors affects the magnitude and direction of the vectors?

No. The order of adding vectors does not affect the magnitude or direction. of the result.


If delta g is negative what can be said about k?

If delta G is negative, then K (Upper case K, as in Keq or the equilibrium constant) will be greater than 1.  Remember that delta G = -RT log K.Do not get Keq confused with lower case k, which denotes rate constants (which have NOTHING TO DO WITH Keq or delta G).
