Question

Assertion (A) To make ATP from ADP and inorganic phosphate requires $30.6 \,kJ$ of energy per mole.
Reason (R) ATP is found in every cells.

• A. If both A and R are true and R is the correct explanation of A
• B. If both A and R are true, but R is not the correct explanation of A
• C. If A is true, but R is false
• D. If A is false, but R is true

Answer 1

Answer: (D)

Assertion is false, but Reason is true and Assertion can be corrected as
The breaking of ATP into ADP and inorganic phosphate releases $30.6 \,kJ$ of energy per mole (not the making of ATP from ADP).
This energy is released from breaking of high energy phosphate bonds in ATP. All cells of the body have ATP molecules in them.
