6. Consider the following two reactions that have the indicated standard free energy changes (G) at pH7 : 1) glucose-6-phosphate +H2O= glucose + phosphate G=3.0kcal/mole 2) fructose-6-phosphate +H2O= fructose + phosphate G=3.5kcal/mole When equimolar amounts of glucose, glucose-6-phosphate, fructose, fructose-6-phosphate, and phosphate are mixed together in buffered water under standard conditions at pH7 which of the following events will happen? a. There will be net formation of fructose and glucose-6-phosphate. b. There will be net formation of glucose and fructose-6-phosphate. c. There will be net formation of glucose and fructose. d. There will be net formation of glucose, fructose-6-phosphate and phosphate. e. There will be no net reaction because these two reactions are not coupled by a common intermediate
