Select the TWO true statements below describing the standard free energy change
(delta G) and the equilibrium constant (Keq).
The equilibrium constant is equal to ratio of the concentration of reactants over products
at equilibrium.
If the value of the equilibrium constant is known, the value for the standard free energy
change can be determined.
The value for the standard free energy change is constant for a given reaction.
The standard free energy change is a function of enzyme concentration in the reaction.
