Textbook Question
Textbook QuestionThe oxidation of glucose 1C6H12O62 in body tissue produces CO2 and H2O. In contrast, anaerobic decomposition, which occurs during fermentation, produces ethanol 1C2H5OH2 and CO2. (a) Using data given in Appendix C, compare the equilibrium constants for the following reactions: C6H12O61s2 + 6 O21g2Δ6 CO21g2 + 6 H2O1l2 C6H12O61s2Δ2 C2H5OH1l2 + 2 CO21g2
