Ask Your Teacher Referring to the metabolic process below, calculate the maximum number of moles of ATP that can be synthesized from ADP from the breakdown of one mole of glucose. C6H12O6(s) + 6 O2(g) → 6 CO2(g) + 6 H2O(l) ΔG° = −2880 kJ/mol ADP + H3PO4 → ATP + H2O ΔG° = 31 kJ/mol WebAssign will check your answer for the correct number of significant figures. moles

Answer:

Moles of ATP synthesized = 93

Explanation:

The breakdown of 1 mole of glucose is accompanied by a free energy change of -2880 kJ/mol

[tex]C6H12O6(s) + 6 O2(g) \rightarrow  6 CO2(g) + 6 H2O(l)[/tex]  ΔG°=-2880 KJ/mol

The synthesis of 1 mole of ATP is accompanied by a free energy change of 31 KJ/mol

[tex]ADP + H3PO4 \rightarrow  ATP + H2O[/tex] ΔG°=31 KJ/mol

Therefore the maximum number of moles of ATP that can be synthesized from the available 2880 kJ/mol would be:

[tex]\frac{1\ mole ATP*2880kJ/mol}{31kJ/mol} =93 moles[/tex]
