ΔG0′
V ↔ W –4.0
W ↔ X +0.4
X ↔ Y –3.4
Y ↔ Z +5.7

From the values of ΔG0′ given in the table, which compound in the overall metabolic pathway V ↔ W ↔ X ↔ Y ↔ Z will accumulate in the largest amount at equilibrium?

LEts see what you guys think AND why. SCroll down for my answer.

























I chose Y because it seemed to be behind the step with the least likelihood of going forward.

Here are a couple of threads from this site that discusses this very same question.
