Chapter 12.5, Problem 1CS, Core Skill: Connections Look back at Figure 6.3, which describes the hydrolysis of ATP. Why is ATP

Figure 6.3 The hydrolysis of ATP to ADP and Pi. As shown in this figure, ATP has a net charge of −4, while ADP and Pi are shown with net charges of −2 each. When these compounds are shown in chemical reactions with other molecules, the net charges are also indicated. Otherwise, these compounds are simply designated ATP, ADP, and Pi. At neutral pH, ADP2− dissociates to ADP3− and H+.
