Combustion of sucrose is used by aerobic oranisms for providing energy for the life sustaining processes. If all the capturing of energy from reaction is done through electrical process (non `P-V` work), then calculate maximum available energy which can be captured by combustion of `34.2g` of sucrose. Given, `DeltaH_("combustion")("surrose") =-6000KJ mol^(-1)` `DeltaS_("combustion")=180J//K-mol` and body temperatuire is `300K`A. `600KJ`B. `594.6KJ`C. `5.4KJ`D. `605.4KJ` |
Answer» Correct Answer - D No. of moles of sucrose `=(34.2)/(342)=0.1` `-(DeltaG)T,P` =useful work done by the system `-DeltaG=-DeltaH+TDeltaS=+(6000xx0.1)+(180xx0.1xx300)/(1000)` `=605.4KJ` |
