Question:
One of the most important sources of energy in living cells
Last updated: 8/5/2022
One of the most important sources of energy in living cells is the transformation of glucose, C6H12O6 into lactic acid, C3H603. C6H12O6(s) --> 2C3H6O3(s). Determine the enthalpy change of this reaction if the heat of combustion of glucose is -2827 kJ/mol and the heat of combustion of lactic acid is -1369kJ/mol.
