4 Listen Why is the AG of ATP hydrolysis in the cell about twice as great as the AG of ATP hydrolysis in a test tube under standard conditions Reactant and product concentrations in the test tube are different from those in the cell ATP hydrolysis in cells is catalyzed by enzymes whereas the reaction in a test tube occurs spontaneously A cell is an open system whereas a test tube is a closed system ATP hydrolysis in a test tube releases more heat than ATP hydrolysis associated with cellular metabolism
