Vedclass · Answer

(D) The total energy released from the complete oxidation of one mole of glucose is $686 \ kcal$.The energy stored in one mole of $ATP$ (high-energy phosphate bond) is $12 \ kcal$.To find the maximum number of $ATP$ molecules that can be generated,we divide the total energy released by the energy required to synthesize one mole of $ATP$.Number of $ATP$ molecules = $\frac{686 \ kcal}{12 \ kcal/ATP} = 57.16 \ ATP$ molecules.Therefore,the maximum number of $ATP$ molecules that can be generated is $57$.

$C$. Kreb's cycle	$3$. $24$

How many $ATP$ molecules could maximally be generated from one molecule of glucose,if the complete oxidation of one mole of glucose to $CO_2$ and $H_2O$ yields $686 \ kcal$ and the useful chemical energy available in the high-energy phosphate bond of one mole of $ATP$ is $12 \ kcal$?
