An athelet takes 20 breaths per minute at room temperature. The air inhaled in each breath is 200mL which contains 20% oxygen by volume, while exhaled air contains 10% oxygen by volume. Assuming that all the oxygen consumed if used for converting glucose into CO_(2) and H_(2)O_((l)) , how much glucose will be burnt in the body in one hour and what is the heat produced ? ( Room temperature -27^(@)C and enthalpy of combustion of glucose is -2822.5kJ mol^(-1) at 0^(@)C)
