PLEASE HELP ME WITH CHEMISTRY!!

In the cell, the hydrolysis of ATP (adenosine triphosphate) into ADP (adenosine diphosphate) and a phosphate group has a ΔG of -50 kJ/mol. The reaction to convert glucose and a phosphate group into glucose-6-phosphate has a positive ΔG, but can be coupled with ATP hydrolysis to produce a spontaneous reaction. What can you infer about the formation of glucose-6-phosphate? ATP → ADP + P; ΔG = -50 kJ/mol Glucose + P → Glucose-6-phosphate; ΔG = + ? A. The ΔS of the reaction that converts glucose and a phosphate into glucose-6-phosphate is positive. B. The ΔG of the reaction that converts glucose and a phosphate into glucose-6-phosphate has a ΔG between 0 and -50 kJ/mol. C. The reaction will never occur in the cell. D. The ΔG of the reaction that converts glucose and a phosphate into glucose-6-phosphate has a ΔG between 0 and +50 kJ/mol.

D. The ΔG of the reaction that converts glucose and a phosphate into glucose-6-phosphate has a ΔG between 0 and +50 kJ/mol. In order for it to occur, it needs to be \(\leq\)+50 kJ/mol
