Running a mile in ten minutes burns between 100 and 120 calories for a 150-pound person. For the same run, a 200-pound person needs about 135-155 calories. In grams, how much ATP is required for this workout? ATP has a molecular mass of 507 g/mol. ATP's g-phosphate group hydrolysis has a free energy of -32 kJ/mol. One calorie is equal to 1000 calories, and one calorie is equal to 4.184 kilojoules (kJ). How much glucose do you need to fuel this run, both aerobically and anaerobically? Assume that one glucose molecule yields 30 ATP when processed aerobically. Molality of glucose is 180g/mol.
