Both glucose and fructose are simple sugars with the same molecular formula of C6Hl2O6. Sucrose (C12H22O11), or table sugar, consists of a glucose molecule bonded to a fructose molecule (a water molecule is eliminated in the formation of sucrose).
(a) Calculate the energy released when a 2.0-g glucose tablet is burned in air. (b) To what height can a 65-kg person climb after ingesting such a tablet, assuming only 30 percent of the energy released is available for work. (See the hint for Problem 10.121.) Repeat the calculations for a 2.0-g sucrose tablet.
