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_(2)O` yields 686 kcal and the useful chemical energy available in the high energy phosphate bond of one mole of ATP is 12 kcal

A

1

B

2

C

30

D

57

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
D

(D) 12 kcal produces - 1 ATP
1 kcal produces - `1//12` ATP
686 kcal produces -`686 xx(1)/(2)=57`ATP
