Open publisher page 23 citations

Abstract

Apparent equilibrium constants K' of biochemical reactions at pH 7 and standard apparent reduction potentials of half reactions at pH 7 can be calculated using a table of standard transformed Gibbs energies of formation Delta(f)G'(0) at pH 7. A table is provided for 136 reactants at 25 degrees C, pH 7, and ionic strengths of 0, 0.10, and 0.25 M. Examples are given to illustrate the use of the table.
