Define the hydrolysis of a phosphate

Reference no: EM13715901

Question- Why does the ATP molecule have such great potential energy which, when released by the hydrolysis of a phosphate, gives off such a large amount of energy.

I desire to know how this is done please illustrate all steps in detail
