Combustion of glucose takes place according to the equation, C ₆ H ₁₂ O ₆+6 O ₂ 6 CO ₂+6 H ₂ O H=-72 k - cal The energy required for combustion of 1.6 g of glucose is
Options
- A0.064 k-cal
- B0.64 k-cal
- C6.4 k - cal
- D64 k-cal
Correct answer
B. 0.64 k-cal
Step-by-step solution
gathered Molar mass of C ₆ H ₁₂ O ₆=180 ~g ~mol ⁻¹ 180 ~g of glucose require energy =72 kcal 1.6 ~g of glucose require energy = 72 1.6 180 gathered =0.64 k cal
