Bioenergetics and
Thermodynamics
Bioenergetics is the quantitative study of the
energy transductions in cells and of the
nature and function of the chemical
processes underlying these transductions.
Bioenergetics obey the Laws of
Thermodynamics
Thermodynamics
3 thermodynamic quantities
1. Gibbs free energy, G
energy capable of doing work during a
reaction at constant T & P.
Reaction proceeds with the release of free
energy G is negative value (exergonic).
Reaction make the system gains free energy
G is positive value (endergonic).
Unit : joules/mole or calories/mole.
2. Enthalpy, H
Heat content of the reacting system.
It reflects the number and kinds of chemical
bonds in the reactants and products.
Reaction releases heat H is negative value
(exothermic).
Systems take up heat from surroundings H is
positive values (endothermic).
Unit : joules/mole or calories/mole.
1 cal = 4.184 J
3. Entropy, S
expression for the randomness or disorder in a
system.
Products of a reaction are less complex & more
disordered than the reactants gain in entropy
S is positive value.
Unit : joules/mole.Kelvin (J/mol.K)

Change
The composition of a reacting system (reactants
& products) tends to continue changing until
equilibrium is reached.
The concentrations of reactants and products at
equilibrium define the equilibrium constant, Keq.
