Lesson 6: ATP Reactions (Condensation)

Condensation

ATP is synthesised during this reaction, using energy that is released during respiration. The symbol equation for the reaction is:

[katex] ADP + Pi + E \rightarrow ATP + H_2O [/katex]

Alternatively, the word equation is:

[katex] ADP + inorganic \space phosphate + energy \rightarrow ATP + water [/katex]
