Question 37

(Multiple Choice)

For the hydrolysis of ATP to ADP + For the hydrolysis of ATP to ADP +   ᵢ, the free energy change is -7.3 kcal/mol under standard conditions (1 M concentration of both reactants and products). In the cellular environment, however, the free energy change is about -13 kcal/mol. What can we conclude about the free energy change for the formation of ATP from ADP and   ᵢ under cellular conditions? A) It is +7.3 kcal/mol. B) It is less than +7.3 kcal/mol. C) It is about +13 kcal/mol. D) It is greater than +13 kcal/mol. E) The information given is insufficient to deduce the free energy change. ᵢ, the free energy change is -7.3 kcal/mol under standard conditions (1 M concentration of both reactants and products).
