The R.Q. (Respiratory quotient) of C(39(...

The R.Q. (Respiratory quotient) of `C_(39(H_(72)O_(6)` is

A

2.71

B

1.34

C

0.72

D

3.25

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
C

`2C_(39)H_(72)O_(6)+108O_(2)rarr78CO_(2)+72H_(2)O`
`therefore R.Q.=("Volume of" CO_(2) "evolved" 78)/("Volume of" O_(2) "used up"108)=.072`
