Solved: Glucose is the major fuel for most living cells.

Chapter 11, Problem 11.37

(choose chapter or problem)

Glucose is the major fuel for most living cells. The oxidative breakdown of glucose by our body to produce energy is called respiration. The reaction for the complete combustion of glucose is C6H12O6(s) 1 6O2(g) 88n 6CO2(g) 1 6H2O(l) If this combustion reaction could be harnessed as a galvanic cell, calculate the theoretical voltage that could be produced at standard conditions. (Hint: Use DG8f values from Appendix 4.)
