Answer:
Exactly how much free energy is released with the hydrolysis of ATP, and how is that free energy used to do cellular work? The calculated ∆G for the hydrolysis of one mole of ATP into ADP and Pi is −7.3 kcal/mole (−30.5 kJ/mol).

The amount of energy released by conversion of 5 moles of ATP into ADP is 36.5 kcal or 152.57 kJ
- The ATP is converted into ADP as follows:
ATP + H2O → ADP + H3PO4 + energy
- This is generally known as ATP hydrolysis.
- The energy released by one mole of ATP = 7.3 kcal (or 30.514 kJ)
⇒ The energy released by 5 moles of ATP = 7.3 × 5 = 36.5 kcal or 152.57 kJ
