When glucose (C6H12O6(s)) is consumed, it reacts with O2 gas in the body to produce gaseous carbon dioxide and liquid water. Enter the balanced chemical equation for the reaction.

Respuesta :

Answer:

The balanced reaction is C6H12O6+6O2=6CO2+6H2O+ATP

Explanation:

Glucose(C6H12O6) reacts with oxygen(O2) molecule to generate carbon dioxide(CO2) and water(H2O).

     This reaction is an exergonic reaction which result in the formation energy in form of ATP.Carbon dioxide is a waste product which is eliminated from our body on the other hand water and energy rich ATP molecules are consumed by our body for various physiological activities.
