making ATP is endergonic. This is because after ATP hydrolysis to form ADP + P, we now are at a lower energy state and for ATP to be formed again it has to be fueled by catabolic pathways, eg respiration. this energy input allows ATP to be formed and thus we see that phosphorylation of ADP requires energy input (endergonic) to form ATP.

Converting ATP into ADP and P itself is EXERGONIC.
