    1.

    Figure 6.8 Look at each of the processes, and decide if it is endergonic or exergonic. In each case, does enthalpy increase or decrease, and does entropy increase or decrease?

    2.

    Figure 6.10 If no activation energy were required to break down sucrose (table sugar), would you be able to store it in a sugar bowl?

    3.

    Figure 6.14 One ATP molecule's hydrolysis releases 7.3 kcal/mol of energy (∆G = −7.3 kcal/mol of energy). If it takes 2.1 kcal/mol of energy to move one Na+ across the membrane (∆G = +2.1 kcal/mol of energy), how many sodium ions could one ATP molecule's hydrolysis move?
