The NADH molecule produces of 2 ATPs during the last stage of respiration. Some think that three ATPs are created from the NADH, however, the last stage of respiration is different than ATP and NADH during electron transfers.
It gets produced form glucose aerobic metabolism that consists of 4 steps: 1.glycolisis = 2 ATPs +2 NADH 2.pyruvate oxidative decarboxilation = 1 NADH *2 (because we have 2 pyruvates from the glycolisis) 3. Krebs cycle = (3NADH + 1FADH + 1ATP) * 2 4.Cellular respiration cycle - process where all the NADH and FADH are converted to ATPs. Each NADH = 3ATP, but FADH=2ATP. Thus we get: 1. 8 ATPs 2. 6 ATPs (3*2) 3. 24 ATPs (12*2) --------------------- 38 ATPs
3 ATP per NADH and 2 ATP per FADH2 through oxidative phosphyrolation in mitochondria
Glycolysis: 2 pyruvates, 4 ATP (net gain of 2), 2 NADH Krebs Cycle: products per glucose molecule: 4 CO2, 6 NADH, 2ATP, 2FADH2 Electron Transport Chain: on average, each NADH will produce 3 ATP, and each FADh2 will produce 2 ATp. Water is also produced... 10 NADH= 30 ATP, 2FADH2= 4 ATP (plus 2 ATP from glycolysis and 2 ATP from Kreb's Cycle) total of 38. One entire round of cellular respiration produces (at the most) 38 ATP. hope this helps!
FADH2 allows for the formation of 2 molecules of ATP during the Kreb's cycle.

In general terms we can say that for every molecule of glucose 38 molecules of ATP are formed. Here is how it works: The 12 electron pairs involved in glucose oxidation are not transferred directly to O2. Rather, they are transferred to the coenzymes NAD+ and FAD to form 10 NADH + 2 FADH2 in the reactions catalyzed by the glycolytic enzyme glyceraldehyde-3-phosphate dehydrogenase, pyruvate dehydrogenase, and the citric acid cycle enzymes isocitrate dehydrogenase, a-ketoglutarate dehydrogenase, succinate dehydrogenase, and the malate dehydrogenase. The electrons then pass into the electron transport chain where, through reoxidation of NADH and FADH2, they participate in the sequential oxidation-reduction of per 10 redox centers before reducing O2 to H2O. In this process, protons are expelled from the mitochondrion. The free energy stored in the resulting pH gradient drives the synthesis of ATP form ADP and Pi through oxidative phosphorylation. Reoxidation of each NADH results in the synthesis of 3 ATPs, and reoxidation of FADH2 yields 2 ATPs for a total of 38 ATPs for each glucose completely oxidized to CO2 and H2O (including the 2 ATPs made in glycolysis and the 2 ATPs made in the citric acid cycle).The stoichiometric analysis can be expressed as:C6H12O6 + 38ADP + 38Pi + 6O2 - 6CO2 + 44H2O + 38ATPMoreover, the net gain of a single molecule of glucose can be analyzed as follows:Glucolysis produces directly 2 NADH, 4 ATPs, and 2 ATPs are consumed, giving a yield of 8 ATPs.Pyruvate oxydation produces 2 NADH to yield 6 ATPs.Acetyl-CoA oxydation (citric acid cycle) produces 6 NADH to yield 18 ATPs, 2 FADH2 to yield 4 ATPs, 2 ATPs or 2 GTPs formed directly, within the citric acid cycle, to yield 2 ATPs.Therefore, the total yield per molecule of glucose is 38.Finally, we have to consider that the final yield of ATP from glucose can be 36 instead of 38 because the number depends upon on which shuttle system is used to transfer reducing equivalents (2 NADH formed in cytosol during glycolisis) into the mitochondrial matrix.
2 ATPs are used to break Glucose down into two molecules of pyruvate. And 2 NAD+ become NADH and 4 ATP are produced. Giving you a net product of 2 NADH and 2 ATPs and 2 molecules of pyruvate.
2 ATPs used, 4 ATPs formed and 2 NADPHs produced
In glycolysis of cellular respiration, NADH produces 2ATP because one ATP is used to transport a molecule of NADH into the mitochondria and continue with aerobic respiration. However, in pyruvate decarboxylation and the Krebs cycle, each NADH yields 3ATPs. FADH2 yields 2 ATPs.
Definitely! Per ever glucose that passes through cellular respiration, 6 NADH are produced during the Krebs Cycle. (Precisely, 3 NADH are produced per turn of the Krebs Cycle and 1 glucose molecule causes the Krebs Cycle to turn twice. Therefore, 2 turns * 3 NADH per turn = 6 NADH)
During glycolysis, the overall gain of ATP per glucose molecule is 2. While glycolysis produces 4 ATPs, it uses 2 ATPs in the process.

10 NADH molecules are produced in total. 2 during glycolysis, 2 during link reaction (1 per pyruvate, 2 per glucose molecule), and 6 during the Krebs cycle. None during the electron transport chain.
Yes.The synthesis of ATP from ADP and Pi (inorganic phosphate) eliminates one molecule of water. It is a condensation reaction. More specifically, since the eliminated molecule is water, it is a dehydration reaction.
