The ATP molecule includes three phosphate groups designated alpha, beta and gamma. When some of the enzymes of fuel metabolism act, the bond between the gamma and beta phosphate is broken and an abundance of free energy is released. But what about in the absence of enzymes? Is ATP stable in water? Choose the two answers correct answers among the four choices given here. O ATP is thermodynamically stable in water. O In water at pH 7, the ATP molecule is heavily protonated. O ATP is kinetically stable in water. O The high density of negative charge in the vicinity of the phosphates shields ATP from being hydrolyzed in water. O In water at pH 7, the ATP molecule is mostly deprotonated with a resulting charge of -4.
