Chapter 10.11, Problem 1PPA

Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation:

The volume of ${\text{CO}}_2$ producedat normal human body temperature($37°\text{C}$)and $1\text{ atm}$ when $10.0\text{g}$ glucose is consumedis to be calculated.

Concept introduction:

The ideal gas equation elaborates the physical properties of gases by relating pressure, volume, temperature, and number of moles with each other with the help of gas laws.

This can be shown by:

$P=\frac{nRT}{V}$

Here, R represents the gas constant, $n$ is the number of moles, $T$ is the temperature, $P$ is the pressure, and $V$ is the volume.

The number of moles is defined as the ratio of mass to the molar mass.

$n=\frac{m}{M}$

Here, $n$ is the number of moles, $m$ is the mass, and $M$ is the molar mass.
