Concept explainers
(a)
Interpretation: To determine the number of phosphorus-oxygen bonds that is broken in the conversion of ATP to AMP via a hydrolysis reaction.
Concept introduction: High energy compounds are those compounds that release a large amount of energy upon hydrolysis. These compounds consist of highly strained bonds which are responsible for the release of a high amount of energy. The compounds containing a phosphate group are examples of high energy compound. ATP and AMP are examples of high energy compounds.
ATP and AMP contain the adenine base, the ribose sugar unit and phosphate groups in their structure. They only differ in the number of phosphate group present in them. Adenosine triphosphate (ATP) consists of three phosphoryl groups
