ATP to ADP produce 7kcal and ADP to AMP, 7Kcal (KBB p.646)

and oxidation of 1 mole of glucose produce max of 38ATP total..in cellular respiration,

then 38ATP x (14?)kcal == 532kcal....

but cambell 6th ed. p.170 says... oxidation of a mole of glucose--> 686Kcal/mol...


can anyone help me to correct this simple math?
