How many moles of glucose, C6H12O6, can be "burned" biologically when 10.0 mol of oxygen is available?

1.67 moles of C₆H₁₂O₆

Explanation:

The reaction is:

C₆H₁₂O₆ + 6O₂ → 6CO₂ + 6H₂O

This is the process for respiration. An exergonic reaction.

6 moles of oxygen react with 1 mol of glucose

Therefore 10 moles of oxygen would react with

(10. 1) / 6 → 1.67 moles
