This isn't even technically true. One GTP molecule is produced which produces one ATP molecule.
The Krebs cycle produces tons of energy, but not in the form of ATP directly. The Krebs cycle (or TCA cycle) results in reducing potential molecules; NADH and FADH2 specifically. These molecules are shuttled through the electron transport chain to produce energy.
3 NADH molecules and 1 FADH molecule is produced for every turn of the Krebs cycle. One molecule of glucose will result in two turns of the Krebs cycle because two pyruvate molecules are the result of one glucose molecule (pyruvate if fed into the Krebs cycle after it is converted into acetyl-CoA). So, one glucose molecule = 6 NADH and 2 FADH molecules (and 2 GTP molecules)
In the electron transport chain 1 NADH molecule = 3 ATP. 1 FADH2 molecule = 2 ATP. From here the math is pretty straight forward
6 NADH molecules = 18 ATP
2 FADH molecules = 4 ATP
2 GTP molecules = 2 ATP
If you ever read something saying the number of ATP molecules produced from a glucose molecule is between 30-38 ATP do not be confused. This is simply the number for: glycolysis, TCA cycle, and oxidative phosphorylation (electron transport chain) added together. We only get about 30 ATP molecules out of it though because the process is not perfect.

Through a series of steps in the Krebs cycle (Citric Acid Cycle), 2 ATP molecules are produced.
36? i think
In addition to ATP what types of molecules are produced in the Krebs cycle
In a complete Krebs Cycle, 24 ATP are produced. Every glucose molecule produces 2 ATP, and there are 12 glucose molecules.

The KREBS cycle turns a sugar molecule into a number of smaller molecules, whose main function is to supply very small packets of energy to cells. There are a number of molecules produced, of which the most common is Adenine triphosphate, aka ATP (which is used to "carry" energy around the body) This cycle is of first importance to all animals; anything which interferes with the Krebs cycle kills the organism very rapidly.
Krebs Cycle .
The two high energy molecules that are produced in the Krebs Cycles are NADH and FADH2. :D
no H2O molecules are produced:)
Glycolysis only produces ATP. GTP is produced during the Citric Acid Cycle (Krebs Cycle).

Both glycolysis and the citric acid cycle (Kreb) produce 2 ATP by substrate level phosphorylation, resulting in a net of 4 ATP.
