23) A common reaction that occurs in cells is shown here. In the presence of oxygen, a glucose molecule is combusted to form car
bon dioxide and water. If 360 grams of glucose are combusted fully, calculate how many moles of oxygen gas will be needed to achieve this reaction.
A) 2
B) 8
C)12
D) 18
A combustion reaction will always be associated with a change in entropy that is Positive due to the gaseous products released. Hence, there is a large positive entropy change.
