B
$-2.5 kJ/mol (or -10.0 kJ/mol under standard biological conditions)$
C
$+7.3 kJ/mol (or +30.5 kJ/mol under standard biological conditions)$
D
$-100 kJ/mol (or -250 kJ/mol under standard biological conditions)$

Explanation

Standard ΔG° for ATP hydrolysis is around -30.5 kJ/mol; under cellular conditions even more negative.
