Because of hydrogen bonding, water has a low high heat of vaporization. In other words, it takes more energy to free up water molecules from a hydrogen-bonded liquid state to a gaseous state.

The G values given in the question relate to the reactions' thermodynamics. A negative G value means that a reaction is thermodynamically spontaneous. A spontaneous reaction can occur without further energy input. This does not tell us anything about the reaction's rate (kinetics). A spontaneous reaction may be slow or it may be fast.

Interstitial water is the fluid on the outside of cells, and surrounds the cells of the human body. While estimates vary, the best answer is that 15% of the entire human body is composed of interstitial water. Overall, about 60% of the body (42L) is composed of water. Additionally, about two-thirds of the total body water is intracellular water. Finally, about 5% of the entire body is composed of plasma.

Remember that these percentages are estimates, and vary by individual. Sex and muscle mass are two factors that can significantly alter these estimates.

Because for the reaction is negative, it is spontaneous and proceeds favorably to the right. Equilibrium does not occur when the concentrations of reactants and products are equal; it occurs when the rates of forward and reverse reactions are equal. At equilibrium thus there is no net change in the concentration of either the reactants or the products.

If two complementary single strands of DNA are put into a solution, they will spontaneously form dsDNA. This process results in a loss of heat from the system - demonstrating that it is an enthalpically favorable process. However, it is entropically unfavorable given the formation of a more ordered structure.

Reaction coupling is the pairing of one unfavorable reaction to another reaction that is favorable. The energetics of the favorable reaction drive the unfavorable one forward.

The Gibbs free energy becomes less favorable, or more positive, as enthalpy increases and entropy decreases.
