The overall reaction that occurs when sugar is metabolized is C 12 H 22 O 11 ( s ) + 12 O 2 ( g ) → 12 CO 2 ( g ) + 11 H 2 O ( l ) For this reaction, ΔH ° is -5650 kJ and ΔG° is -5790 kJ at 25°C. (a) If 25% of the free energy change is actually converted to useful work, how many kilojoules of work are obtained when one gram of sugar is metabolized at body temperature, 37°C? (b) How many grams of sugar would a 120-lb woman have to eat to get the energy to climb the Jungfrau in the Alps, which is 4158 m high? ( w = 9.79 × 10 − 3 mh , where w = work in kilojoules, m is body mass in kilograms, and h is height in meters.)

Chemical pathways by which living things function, especially those that provide cellular energy, such as the transformation of energy from food into the energy of ATP. Metabolism also focuses on chemical pathways involving the synthesis of new biomolecules and the elimination of waste.
(ME EX1) Prblm #9/10
Can you explain in detail (step by step) I'm so confused with these problems. For turmber 13 can u turn them into lewis dot structures so I can better understand because, and then as well explain the resonance structure part. Thanks for the help.
Problems 19 and 20: (ME EX1) Can you please explain the following in detail? I'm having trouble understanding them. Both problems are difficult for me to explain in detail, so please include the drawings and answers.
(ME EX1) Prblm #4-11 Can you please help me and explain these I'm very confused in detail please. Prblm number 9 I don't understand at all (its soo confusing to me and redraw it so I can better depict it).
