Consider the reaction:
Glucose + Pi = glocose 6-phosphate +H2O
DG°´ = +3kcal/mol

What is the equilibrium constant, K´eq, for this reaction? (Note: the concentration of water is ignored.) Does the positive DG°´ in the above reaction mean that the reaction can never go spontaneously from left to right?
