8. The oxidation of the sugar glucose, C6H1206 is described by the following equation: C6 H12 O6 (s) + 602 (g) 6CO2 (g) + 6H2 O(1) AH =-2816 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 g of glucose? (b) How many Calories can be produced by the metabolism of 1.0 g of glucose?
