Answer #1

for this to happen

the reactants must be elements in their standard state cause the free energy for elements in their standard states is zero

so

now

free energy change of reaction = free energy of prodocuts - free energy of reactants

free energy change of reaction = free energy of glucose - 0

free energy change of reaction = free energy of glucose


also one mole of glucose must be formed

the standard states are

Carbon --> C(s)

hydrogen ---> H2 (g)

oxygen ---> O2 (g)

so the chemical reaction is

6C(s) + 6 H2 (g) + 3O2 (g) --> C6H12O6 (s)
