Internal free translation

The non-linear activated complex has three translations, three rotations, one internal free translation and 3Na + 3Ns — 7 vibrations. 

A-—B)/ has three translations, three rotations, one internal free translation and (3Na + 3Nb — 7) vibrations. Reactants have a total of six translations, six rotations and (3NA + 3NB — 12) vibrations. The activated complex has a total of three translations, three rotations, one internal free translation and (3NA + 3NB — 7) vibrations. 

On forming the activated complex, we lose three translations and three rotations and gain 5 vibrations. The activated complex gains one internal free translation, but this has already been taken care of in the derivation of the rate expression and does not appear in the exp(+A5 /R) term. Quantifying this gives translation, lose 150 J mol 1 K-1 rotation, lose 120 J mol 1 K 1 vibration, gain 50 J mol-1 K 1 net loss is 220 J mol-1 K-1.

A-B relative or external motion undergo free-free transitions (E., E. + dE.) (Ej Ej+ dE within the translational continuum, while the structured particles undergo bound-bound (excitation, de-excitation, excitation transfer) or bound-free (ionization, dissociation) transitions = (a, 3) ->/= (a, (3 ) in their internal electronic, vibrational or rotational structure. The transition frequency (s ) for this collision is... 

The function 0(7) is again defined by Eq. 10 and represents the contributions due to translational motion and internal degrees of freedom of the solute molecule.t The second term is related to the potential energy w o) of the solute molecule at the center of its cage referred to the perfect gas, and the integral is the Tree volume of the solute molecule wandering in the cavity. In order to conform with the customary notation of the L-J-D theory we shall further write the free volume as... 

The catalytic activities of the fortified wheat germ cell-free systems supplemented with each fraction were investigated (Fig. 2). As shown in Fig. 2, only 0 - 40 % ammonium sulfate fraction showed an enhancement in DHFR protein synthesis. This enhancement of protein experimental results and the fact that the various eukaryotic initiation factors are contained in synthesis was also confirmed by SDS-PAGE and autoradiography (Fig. 3). From the above 0-40 % ammonium sulfate fraction [5, 6], it can be concluded that the amount of initiation factors in a conventionally prepared wheat germ cell-fi extract is deficient for the translation of DHFR with internal ribosome entry site. Therefore, it needs to supplement a wheat germ cell-free extract with the fraction containing the limited initiation factors for the efficient protein translation, and this fortified cell-free system can be easily made by simple... 

The A defined in Equation 5.30 is not to be confused with the Helmholtz free energy. Should the A frequencies be limited to the external hindered translations and rotations, vi g = vi g = 0, and this is an additional simplification. In some molecules, however, there are isotope sensitive low lying internal modes (often internal rotations or skeletal bends). In that cases both terms in Equation 5.30 contribute. 

Entropy effects. The replacement of the coordination shell of the cation by a multidentate ligand has also the very important effect of decreasing the free energy of the system by the increase in translational entropy of the displaced water molecules. If there were no variation in solvation and internal entropies of the free ligand and of the complexes, the increase in translational entropy would amount to about 8 e.u., where x is the number of displaced solvent molecules minus one (38). This estimate is, however, very inaccurate large deviations are expected, especially in the case of complicated multidentate ligands for which complex formation may produce appreciable internal and solvation entropy changes.
