An athelete is given 100g of glucose (C(...

An athelete is given `100g` of glucose `(C_(6)H_(12)O_(6))` of energy equivalent to `1560 kJ`. He utilises `50%` of this gained enegry in the event. In order to avoid storage of enegry in the body, calculate the weight of water he would need to perspire. The enthalpy of evaporation of water is `441kJ//mol`.

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

Unused energy`=(1560)/(2)=780kJ`
Mass of water needed for perspiration `=18xx(780)/(44)=318.96g`
