In order to solve a complex physical chemistry, problem, brain requires some "netural energives " which are electical in nature. Each problem on an average requires 21 Joules of netral energy. Calculate minimum amount of glucose required to solve 10 such problem if all electrical energy is obtained for oxidation of glucose: [Given: deltaH_(combustion)^(@) "of glucose" =-2800k//J "mole" deltaS_(combustion)^(@) "of glucose" =-(1000)/(3)J//mol//K, Temperature=300K]

Calculate the standard free energy change for the combustion of glucose at 298K, using the given data, C_(6)H_(12)O_(6)+6O_(2)to6CO_(2)+6H_(2)O DeltaH^(@)=-2820kJ" "mol^(-1),DeltaS^@=210JK^(-1)" "mol^(-1)

It is obseved that functioning of neuronal circuits in our brain is driven by the energy available from combustion of glucose. Calculate the amount of glucose (in gm) which should be burnt per hour to produce sufficient energy for brain which operated at(128)/(9) watts. |DeltaH^(@)| 400 K combustion of glucose = 3000 kJ/mole [Geven : |DeltaS^(@)| 400 K combustion of glucose = 180 J/mol K]

The combustion of 1.22 g benzoic acid (M=122) in a bomb calorimeter at 300 K caused a temperature rise of 3 K, While combustion of 0.88 g ethyl ethanote (M=88) caused a temperature rise of 2 K. Calculate the enthalapy change of combustion of CH_(3)COOC_(2)H_(5)(l) at 300 K. Given : Internal energy change of combustion for benzoic acid =-300kJ mol^(-1) at 300 K and R=8.3 JK^(-1)mol^(-1)

Animals operate under conditions of constant pressure and most of the processes that maintain life are electrical (in a broad sense). How much energy is available for sustaining this type of muscular and nervous activity from the combustion of 1 mol of glucose molecules under standard conditions at 37^(@)C (blood temperature)? The entropy change is +182.4JK^(-1) for the reaction as stated. DeltaH_("combustion[glucose]")=-2808KJ

For an internal combustion engine to move a vehicle down the road ,it must convert the energy stored in the fuel into mechanical energy to drive the wheels. In your car, the distributor and battery provide this starting energy by creating an electrical "spark", which helps in combustion of fuels like gasoline. Below is the reaction depicting complete combustion of gasoline in full supply of air: 2C_8 H_(18)(l) +25 O_(2) (g) to 16 'x' On the basis of evolution/absorption of energy, which of the following processes are similar to combustion of fuel? (a) Photosynthesis in plants (b)Respiration in the human body (c ) Decomposition of vegetable matter (d) Decomposition of ferrous sulphate .

A person takes 15 breaths per minute. The volume of air inhaled in each breath is 448 ml and contains 21% of oxygen by volume. The exhaled air contains 16% of oxygen by volume. If all the oxygen is used in the combustion of sucrose, how much of the Sucrose is burnt in the body per day & how much heat is evolved. Delta H_(com) of sucrose is = 6000 kJ mol^(-1) . Take temperature to be 300 K throughout. [Assuming V_("inhaled air") = V_("exhalded air"), P_(atm) = 1atm ]

1 g of coal on complete combustion liberates 18 k J of heat. Calculate the amount of coal required to liberate the same amount of heat that an electric heater of 2 kW provides in 1 h . or Electricity generated by a windmill is another form of solar energy. Explain ?
