Answer:

this can be done by increasing the negative charges of each of the phosphate group bonded to the ADENOSINE GROUPS

Explanation;

Basically the hydrolysis of ATP generate large amount of energy of 30.5kj from each phosphate bond broken for ATP usage. However the amount energy liberated depends on the strong negative charges of repulsion of phosphate ions bonded to each Adenosine group.

Consequently, anything that increases the number charges for repulsion should increase the ENERGY LIBERATED DURING HYDROLYSIS OF ATP TO

ADP +Pi

and

ADP → AMP +Pi
