The population of the U.S. in 2021 was 332.9 million
Assuming that glucose is metabolized entirely to carbon dioxide and water according to the following equation:
C6H12O6(s) + 6 O2(g) → 6 CO2(g) + 2 H2O(l) ΔH° = -2803 kJ
Calculate the mass of carbon dioxide in kg produced by the U.S. population in 2021 if an average person consumes 2000 Cal per day.
