During the metabolism of amino acids, amino groups are often switched from one organic compound to another through a process called transamination. The following are two examples of transamination reactions with their corresponding free energy changes:
glutamate + pyruvate ---> α-ketoglutarate + alanine ∆Go' = - 1.00 kJ/mol
glutamate + oxaloacetate ---> α-ketoglutarate + aspartate ∆Go' = - 4.81 kJ/mol
Answer the following questions about transamination.
a. Using the two equations given above, write an equation for the net formation of alanine and oxaloacetate from aspartate and pyruvate.
b. Calculate the standard free energy change for this overall reaction and indicate whether it will go spontaneously in the direction indicated.
c. Suppose that under steady state conditions in a cell at 37 oC, the actual concentrations of pyruvate and aspartate are 1.2 x 10-2 M, the concentration of alanine is 1.5 x 10-4 M, and the concentration of oxaloacetate is 1.9 x 10-5 M. Using the equation that ∆G = ∆Go' + RT ln [products]/[reactants] and the gas constant of R = 8.315 J/mol K, calculate the actual free energy change and determine if the reaction is spontaneous

We ran a recrystallization experiment in lab, ultimtely I know recrystallization is used for purification purposes, but this question is confusing me.
What affect did recrystallization have upon the yield of product, the appearance of the product, and its melting point? yield and MP confuse me. I wasnt given the resources to check the MP during lab so is there a generalized consenssus of wha
I know you wont be able to tell me about appearance, I have that potion but the yield and MP portion I was wondering if there is some generalized assumption I am missing for recrystalllized products? I was not given the rousources to measure the MP during lab so I assume there is a trend I am missing from recrystallization - like raising the MP because it is a purer substance.
