In proteins, valine has three possible rotamers, corresponding to different configurations about the C∝-Cβ bond. The figure below shows the three configurations in Newman projection, and computed energies associated with them.
a. Calculate the value of the molar partition function for an equilibrium mixture of these three conformers, at 298 K.
b. Using Eq 1 and 2, calculate the molar internal energy and the molar entropy associated with an equilibrium mixture of the conformers, at 298 K.
