Question

1.-the chem eqn for the metabolic breakdown of glucose(C2H12O6) is the same as that forhte combustion of glucose C6H12O6 (aq) +6O2(g) ------> 6CO2(g) +6H2O(l) calculate the volume of CO2 produced at normalhuman temperature (37oC) and 1.00 atm when 10.0 g ofglucose is consumed in the reaction.   (the result is8.48 L CO2, but how do I get to this result?) 1.-the chem eqn for the metabolic breakdown of glucose(C2H12O6) is the same as that forhte combustion of glucose C6H12O6 (aq) +6O2(g) ------> 6CO2(g) +6H2O(l) calculate the volume of CO2 produced at normalhuman temperature (37oC) and 1.00 atm when 10.0 g ofglucose is consumed in the reaction.   (the result is8.48 L CO2, but how do I get to this result?)

Explanation / Answer

10g glucose (1molglucose/ 180g gluclose) = 0.0556 molglucose 0.0556mol glucose (6molCO2/ 1mol gluclose) = 0.3333 PV = nRT V = nRT/P = (0.333 mol)(0.0821)(37+273)/ 1atm = 8.48 L
