Summary Introduction

To determine: The values of (ΔG) and ln Q at 35°C for the given concentrations of ATP, ADP, and Pi when the value of (ΔG°) is -30.5 kJ/mol.

Introduction:

The ATP refers to adenosine triphosphate. A complex organic compound cell produces during the process of cellular respiration. Cellular respiration is the process by which energy is produced in a cell. Energy is released from the breakdown of glucose in cellular respiration. This energy is then used by the cell for performing various life processes. Mitochondria are considered as the powerhouses of the cell, which synthesizes energy in the form of ATP.

Summary Introduction

To determine: The reason behind the fact that the ratio [ATP]/[ADP] is maintained high by metabolism.
