Energy from the ATP hydrolysis drives many non spontaneous cell reactions:
ATP4-(aq) + H20(l)↔ADP3-(aq)+HPO42-(aq) +H+ (aq) ΔG= -30.5kJ
Energy for the reveres process comes ultimately from glucose metabolism:
C6H12O6(s) +6O2(g)→ 6CO2(g)+6H2O(l)
1. Evaluate the K for the hydrolysis of ATP at the 37C.
2. Evaluate the ΔG reaction for metabolism of 1 mole glucose.
3. Determine the numbers of moles of ATP can be formed by metabolism of 1mol of glucose?
4. If 36 mol of ATP is formed, what is the actual yield?
