Under physiological conditions, the hydrolysis of ATP to ADP releases ca 50 kJ mol-1. Neurons derive their energy from concentration gradients created by pumping K+ across the cell membrane. If the nominal cell concentration of K+ is 50 mmol, how many moles of ATP must be hydrolyzed to create a 45 mV transmembrane potential?
