Reaction 1: A+B→CA + B \rightarrow C  ΔG∘=+4.5 kcal⋅mol−1\Delta G^\circ = +4.5\,\text{kcal}\cdot\text{mol}^{-1} Reaction 2: ATP+H2O→ADP+Pi\text{ATP} + H_2\text{O} \rightarrow \text{ADP} + P_i  ΔG∘=−7.3 kcal⋅mol−1\Delta G^\circ = -7.3\,\text{kcal}\cdot\text{mol}^{-1} Convert each ΔG∘\Delta G^\circ value to kJ⋅mol−1\text{kJ}\cdot\text{mol}^{-1} (1 kcal=4.184 kJ1\,\text{kcal} = 4.184\,\text{kJ}), then determine the ΔG∘\Delta G^\circ for the overall reaction A+B+ATP+H2O→C+ADP+PiA + B + \text{ATP} + H_2\text{O} \rightarrow C + \text{ADP} + P_i. State whether the net process is thermodynamically favorable.
