C6H12O6 O + 6O2 →→ 6CO2 + 6H2O + Energy Determine the limiting reactant and how much of that limiting reactant you would need in order to use up all of the non-limiting reactant. Assume you have 25 grams of glucose and 40 grams of oxygen as reactants for the following photosynthesis reaction: A) Glucose is the limiting reactant; You would need .1388 moles of glucose to use up all of the Oxygen (non-limiting reactant). B Glucose is the limiting reactant; You would need .208 moles of glucose to use up all of the Oxygen (non-limiting reactant). C Oxygen is the limiting reactant; You would need 1.25 moles of Oxygen to use up all of the glucose (non-limiting reactant). D Oxygen is the limiting reactant; You would need .8328 moles of Oxygen to use up all of the glucose (non-limiting reactant).
Thermochemistry
Thermochemistry can be considered as a branch of thermodynamics that deals with the connections between warmth, work, and various types of energy, formed because of different synthetic and actual cycles. Thermochemistry describes the energy changes that occur as a result of reactions or chemical changes in a substance.
Exergonic Reaction
The term exergonic is derived from the Greek word in which ‘ergon’ means work and exergonic means ‘work outside’. Exergonic reactions releases work energy. Exergonic reactions are different from exothermic reactions, the one that releases only heat energy during the course of the reaction. So, exothermic reaction is one type of exergonic reaction. Exergonic reaction releases work energy in different forms like heat, light or sound. For example, a glow stick releases light making that an exergonic reaction and not an exothermic reaction since no heat is released. Even endothermic reactions at very high temperature are exergonic.
