Read the passage given below and answer the question: Adenosine triphosphate (ATP) is the energy-carrying molecule found in the cells of all living things. ATP captures chemical energy obtained from the breakdown of food molecules and releases it to fuel other cellular processes. ATP is a nucleotide that consists of three main structures: the nitrogenous base, adenine, the sugar, ribose, and a chain of three phosphate groups bound to ribose. The phosphate tail of ATP is the actual power source which the cell taps. Available energy is contained in the bonds between the phosphates and is released when they are broken, which occurs through the addition of a water molecule (a process called hydrolysis). Usually only the outer phosphate is removed from ATP to yield energy, when this occurs ATP is converted to adenosine diphosphate (ADP), the form of the nucleotide having only two phosphates. The importance of ATP (adenosine triphosphate) as the main source of chemical energy in living matter and its involvement in cellular processes has long been recognized. The primary mechanism whereby higher organisms, including humans, generate ATP is through mitochondrial oxidative phosphorylation. For the majority of organs, the main metabolic fuel is glucose, which in the presence of oxygen undergoes complete combustion to CO_2 and H_2O : C_6H_(12)O_6 + 6O_2 rarr 6CO_2 + 6H_2O + "energy" The free energy (AG) liberated in this exergonic (AG is negative) reaction is partially trapped as ATP in two consecutive processes: glycolysis (cytosol) and oxidative phosphorylation (mitochondria). The first produces 2 mol of ATP per mol of glucose, and the second 36 mol of ATP per mol of glucose. Thus, oxidative phosphorylation yields 17-18 times as much useful energy in the form of ATP as can be obtained from the same amount of glucose by glycolysis alone. The efficiency of glucose metabolism is the ratio of amount of energy produced when 1 mol of glucose oxidised in cell to the enthalpy of combustion of glucose. The energy lost in the process is in the form of heat. This heat is responsible for keeping us warm. (source: Erecińska, M., & Silver, 1. A. (1989). ATP and Brain Function.

A heavy machine rejects a liquid at 60^(@)C which is to be cooled to 30^(@)C before it is fed back to the machine. The liquid rejected by the machine is kept flowing through a long tube while it is cooled by 60 liter water surrounding the tube. The initial temperature of the cooling water is 10^(@)C and it is 20^(@)C when it is changed after 1 hour. Calculate the amount of liquid that passes through the tube in one hour. Specific heat capacity of the liquid and water are 0.5 calg^(-1) .^(@)C^(-1) and 1.0 calg^(-1).^(@)C^(-1) respectively.
