Document Summary

Catabolic reactions exergonic reactions that supply energy. Energy comes in ch bonds which are oxidized and the electrons are used to do work. The work they can do is drive the endergonic synthesis of atp from a pool of adp and pi floating around in cell. You"re not synthesising substrates from scratch, atp comes from adp and pi. Free energy in atp (-7. 3kcal/mol) can be used to drive endergonic biosynthetic reactions. Cycle of atp being converted to adp and pi and being reformed again. This holds the same for nad+ + 2h+ nadh. These are pools of nad+ and nadh. (h2o h+ + oh-) you never don"t have protons. Nadh comes from reduction of nad+ with 2 protons and 1 electron. Protons come from dissociation of water that goes on so in any aqueous environment. Atp hydrolysis atp + h2o adp + pi ( g=-7. 4kcal/mol) Energy does not come from bond breakage energy is required to break bonds.
