The free energy from the hydrolysis of ATP under standard
conditions, is DG0 = -30.5 kJ/mol. Assume the
temperature in a particular cell is 320 K, the concentration of ATP
is 0.37 mmol, the concentration of ADP is 0.035 mmol, and the
concentration of phosphate is 0.025 mmol. What is the DG for
ATP hydrolysis under these conditions?
Based on the results in part 1, what is the
efficiency of the energy conversion of glucose to carbon dioxide
and water?
How can the less than 100 % energy conversion in part
2 be explained?
