Chapter 1, Problem 1.16NP

Aerobic cells metabolize glucose in the respiratory system. This reaction proceeds according to the overall reaction ${\text{6O}}_{\text{2}}\left(g\right)+{\text{C}}_{\text{6}}{\text{H}}_{\text{12}}{\text{O}}_{\text{6}}\left(s\right)\to {\text{6CO}}_{\text{2}}\left(g\right)+{\text{6H}}_{\text{2}}\text{O}\left(\text{l}\right)$

Calculate the volume of oxygen required at STP to metabolize 0.025 kg of glucose $\left({\text{C}}_{\text{6}}{\text{H}}_{\text{12}}{\text{O}}_{\text{6}}\right)$. STP refers to standard temperature and pressure, that is, $\text{T}=\text{273 K}$ and $\text{P}=\text{1}.00\text{ atm}$. Assume oxygen behaves ideally at STP.
