Following the citric acid cycle but before the electron transport chain and oxidative phosphorylation, how much potential energy has been transferred to the bonds of ATP (at 7.3 kcal/mol)? the bonds of NADH (at 53 kcal/mol)? If glucose oxidation to CO₂ and H₂O has a $\Delta$G of 676 kcal/mol, what proportion of potential energy has been captured? Where would you predict the remaining potential energy has gone?
