Calculate the actual free energy of hydrolysis of ATP, delta Gp in the erythrocytes of a new species. The standard free-energy of hydrolysis of ATP is also -30.5kJ/mol in this species, but the concentrations in this specie's erythrocytes are 0.00760 mM ATP, 0.00063 mM ADP and 0.00273 mM Pi. Assume the pH is 7.0 and the body temperature of this species is 91.0oC. Calculate your answer as kJ/mol to two decimal places.
