Question

Adenosine triphosphate (ATP) is a compound that provides energy for biomechanical reactions in the body when it undergoes hydrolysis. For the hydrolysis of ATP at 37 °C (normal body temperature), ΔG°r = -20.0 kJ⋅mol⁻¹ and ΔS°r = +34.0 J⋅K⁻¹⋅mol⁻¹. Assuming that these quantities are independent of temperature, calculate the temperature above which the equilibrium constant for the hydrolysis of ATP becomes greater than one.
