Isobaric Process finding G using (deltaG-deltaGo)

AI Thread Summary
The discussion focuses on understanding the presence of two ΔG values in the context of a chemistry course. It clarifies that for biological processes at body temperature (37°C), the entropy change (ΔS) remains approximately constant, allowing the relationship ΔG(37°C) – ΔG(25°C) ≈ – (T – 298)(ΔS(25°C)) to hold. The participants emphasize that the standard free energy change (ΔG^0) is temperature-dependent, and the differential form dΔG^0 = ΔS^0 dT is crucial for understanding this relationship. The integration of this equation under the assumption of constant ΔS^0 leads to the conclusion that ΔG^0(T) can be expressed in terms of ΔG^0 at 298 K. Overall, the conversation seeks clarity on the thermodynamic principles governing these equations.

Can anyone help me with understanding what is going on at page 11 of these notes?

Do you get why there is 2 delta Gs? I am really confused with what he
was trying to do there?
ΔG(37oC) – ΔG(25oC) ≈ – (T – 298) (ΔS(25oC))

Thanks
For biological processes at body temperature (37oC = 98.6oF)
ΔS(37oC) ≈ ΔS(25oC) ≈ constant
And thus:
ΔG(37oC) – ΔG(25oC) ≈ – (T – 298) (ΔS(25oC))
(b) dG is an exact differential
 
Physics news on Phys.org
For some specified chemical reaction, the standard free energy change ##Delta G^0## is a function of temperature ##\Delta G^0(T)##. We know that the effect of temperature on ##Delta G^0## is given by $$d{\Delta G^0}=\Delta S^0dT$$. If ##\Delta S^0## is nearly constant over the temperature range of interest (between 298 K and T), then we can integrate to get $$\Delta G^0(T)-\Delta G^0(298)=\Delta S^0(298)(T-298)$$
 
Thread 'Question about pressure of a liquid'
I am looking at pressure in liquids and I am testing my idea. The vertical tube is 100m, the contraption is filled with water. The vertical tube is very thin(maybe 1mm^2 cross section). The area of the base is ~100m^2. Will he top half be launched in the air if suddenly it cracked?- assuming its light enough. I want to test my idea that if I had a thin long ruber tube that I lifted up, then the pressure at "red lines" will be high and that the $force = pressure * area$ would be massive...
