It is 122KJ of energy is used from the conversion of ATP to ADP because hydrolyses of 1 mole of ATP requires 30.5KJ of energy. Therefore, if 4 ATP is hydrolyses, it will be 4× 30.5=122KJ. ... This energy is given out because there is cleavage of high energy phosphate bond in ATP while converting it into ADP.
