5. It takes 820 ml of oxygen to completely oxidize one gram of glucose. Calculate the amount of glucose consumed per minute for the corn at different temperatures (12°C and 22°C). 6. Looking at the results above, try to come up with an explanation (hypothesis) for any differences in metabolic rates you determined.

Step 1
04 ml per minute, we can calculate the amount of glucose consumed per minute as follows: Amount of glucose consumed per minute = Rate of oxygen consumption / Volume of oxygen needed to oxidize 1 gram of glucose Amount of glucose consumed per minute = 0.04 ml/min / Show more…

The oxidation of the sugar glucose, C6H12O6, is described by the following equation: C6H12O6(s) + 6O2(g) ⟶ 6CO2(g) + 6H2O(l) ΔH = -2816 kJ The metabolism of glucose gives the same products, although the glucose reacts with oxygen in a series of steps in the body. How much heat in kilojoules can be produced by the metabolism of 1.0 g of glucose?

The oxidation of the sugar glucose, C6H12O6, is described by the following equation: C6H12O6(s) + 6 O2(g) → 6 CO2(g) + 6 H2O(l) ΔH = -2802.5 kJ/mol. The metabolism of glucose gives the same products, although the glucose reacts with oxygen in a series of steps in the body. (a) How much heat in kilojoules can be produced by the metabolism of 14.0 g of glucose? (b) How many Calories can be produced by the metabolism of 14.0 g of glucose?

The oxidation of the sugar glucose, $\mathrm{C}_{6} \mathrm{H}_{12} \mathrm{O}_{6},$ is described by the following equation: $$\mathrm{C}_{6} \mathrm{H}_{12} \mathrm{O}_{6}(s)+6 \mathrm{O}_{2}(g) \longrightarrow 6 \mathrm{CO}_{2}(g)+6 \mathrm{H}_{2} \mathrm{O}(l) \quad \Delta H=-2816 \mathrm{kJ}$$ The metabolism of glucose gives the same products, although the glucose reacts with oxygen in a series of steps in the body. (a) How much heat in kilojoules can be produced by the metabolism of 1.0 $\mathrm{g}$ of glucose? (b) How many Calories can be produced by the metabolism of 1.0 $\mathrm{g}$ of glucose?
