In the electron transport chain electrons from fadh2 are


In the electron transport chain, electrons from FADH2 are eventually used to reduce O2 into H2O. Experimentally, the proton motive force created by this process will generate 2 ATP molecules from ADP and Pi, using ATP synthase. From the information provided below, calculate the efficiency for the system

Efficiency = Energy stored/ Energy produced

FAD + 2 H + 2e = FADH2 Eo' = - 0.22
.5 O2 + 2 H + 2e = H2O Eo' = 0.82
ATP = ADP + Pi ΔGo' = 30.5 kJ/mol
