Which of the following is an example of a coupling of an exergonic reaction with an endergonic one?

Which of the following is an example of a coupling of an exergonic reaction with an endergonic one? Correct Answer The flow of electrons down an electron transport chain in mitochondria powers the pumping of protons against a gradient into the outer compartment.

(D) The coupling of exergonic and endergonic reactions is an important biochemical strategy. The exergonic flow of electrons in the cristae membrane of mitochondria provides the energy to pump protons across the cristae membrane and maintain a gradient.

A chain growth polymerisation reaction consists of three different types of reaction namely initiation reaction, propagation reaction & termination reaction. Chain growth polymerisation reaction is not involved in the manufacture of
For a reaction, the extent of reaction equation is Ni = Nio + ϒVi is Where: Ni = Moles of species I present in the system after the reaction occurs Nio = Moles of species I present in the system when the reaction starts Vi = Stoichiometric coefficient for species i in the specified chemical reaction equation ϒ = Extent of reaction
Rate constant for a first order reaction does not depend upon reaction time, extent of reaction and the initial concentration of reactants ; but it is a function of reaction temperature. In a chemical reaction, the time required to reduce the concentration of reactant from 100 gm moles/litre to 50 gm moles/litre is same as that required to reduce it from 2 gm moles/litre to 1 gm mole/litre in the same volume. Then the order of this reaction is
