In glycolysis, fructose 1,6-bisphosphate is converted to two products with a standard free-energy change ( Δ\Delta G'°) of 23.8 kJ/mol. Under what conditions encountered in a normal cell will the free-energy change ( Δ\Delta G) be negative, enabling the reaction to proceed spontaneously to the right?
