Answer:
Total Kcal energy produced in the catabolism of mannoheptulose = 1184 Kcal
Explanation:
The molecular formula of mannoheptulose is C₇H₁₄O₇.
The structure is as shown in the attachment below.
Number of C-C bonds present in mannoheptulose = 6
Number of C-H bonds present in mannoheptulose = 8
Since the each C-C bond contains 76 Kcal of energy,
Amount of energy present in six C-C bonds = 6 * 76 = 456 Kcal
Also, since each C-H bond contains 91 Kcal of energy;
amount of energy present in eight C-H bonds = 8 * 91 = 728 Kcal
Total Kcal energy produced in the catabolism of mannoheptulose = 456 + 728 = 1184 Kcal
