Question:

Adenosine triphosphate (ATP) is a compound that provides energy for biochemical reactions in the body when it undergoes hydrolysis. For the hydrolysis of ATP at 37°C (normal body temperature), ΔHr° = 220. kJ · mol–1 and ΔSr° = 134 J · K–1 · mol–1. Assuming that these quantities are independent of temperature, calculate the temperature at which the equilibrium constant for the hydrolysis of ATP becomes greater than 1.
