Answer:
The correct answer is -2878 kJ/mol.
Explanation:
The reaction that takes place at the time of the oxidation of glucose is,
C₆H₁₂O₆ (s) + 6O₂ (g) ⇒ 6CO₂ (g) + 6H₂O (l)
The standard free energy change for the oxidation of glucose can be determined by using the formula,
ΔG°rxn = ∑nΔG°f (products) - ∑nΔG°f (reactants)
The ΔG°f for glucose is -910.56 kJ/mol, for oxygen is 0 kJ/mol, for H2O -237.14 kJ/mol and for CO2 is -394.39 kJ/mol.
Therefore, ΔG°rxn = 6 (-237.14) + 6 (-394.39) - (-910.56)
ΔG°rxn = -2878 kJ/mol
The reasonable ground-state electron configuration is: 1s2 2s2 2p6 3s2 3p6 4s2 4d8
Answer:
C) Krypton is a noble gas, so it was difficult for chemists to find it, as though it was a secret.
