Phosphate is critical to the functioning of both ATP and DNA.
The stable form of phosphate in solution is the phosphate anion (a
negative ion) PO43− .This is a tetrahedral
molecule, with a central P+ ion surrounded by four
O− ions. The P-O bond lengths are 0.14 nm, which
corresponds to an O-O distance of the edge length of the
tetrahedron of 0.24 nm. What is the electric potential energy of a
phosphate anion? Show your work.
