Answer: 9.375g
Step-by-step explanation:
1 mole of glucose: 6 moles of oxygen
First, calculate the number of moles of oxygen in 10 g:
1 mole of glucose reacts with 6 moles of oxygen
x moles of glucose reacts with 0.3125 moles of oxygen,
Now calculate the mass of 5/96 moles of glucose.
The maximum mass of glucose that can be burned in 10 g of oxygen is 9.375 g.
