C6H12O6 + 6O2 --> 6CO2 + 6H2O

Assuming that all the energy released by the oxidation of one mole of glucose to carbon dioxide and water can be stored in the form of ATP, how many moles of ATP can be theoretically produced from ADP at 37 C? Use delta G since it tells you how much work a reaction could do or requires. ( P is a phosphate group, ADP is adenosine dephosphate, ATP is adenosine triphosphate) ADP​-3 ​+ H​+ P ​i ---> ATP 4​​_ +​ H​2O \Delta G​= 31.4 kJ/mol

b) The degradation of glucose via glycolysis under aerobic conditions results in the production of 38 moles of ATP in the human body. What is the % efficiency of the process?

Combustion of glucose (C6H12O6) is the main source of energy for animal cells: C6H12O6(s)+ 6O2(g)→ 6CO2(g)+ 6H2O(l) =ΔGrxn37°C−2872.kJ One of the most important uses to which this energy is put is the assembly of proteins out of amino acid building blocks. The Gibbs free energy of formation of one peptide bond, joining one amino acid to another, is 21/kJmol. Suppose some cells are assembling a certain protein made of 17 amino acids. (Note that the number of peptide bonds in...
