Conceptual Challenge Problems
These rigorous, thought-provoking problems integrate conceptual learning with problem solving and are suitable for group work.
CP4.B (Section 4.4) Glucose, C6H12O6, a monosaccharide, and sucrose, C12H22O11, a disaccharide, undergo complete combustion with O2 (metabolic conversion) to produce H2O and CO2.
(a) How many moles of O2 are needed per mole of each sugar for the reaction to proceed?
(b) How many grams of O2 are needed per mole of each sugar for the reaction to proceed?
(c) Which combustion reaction produces more H2O per gram of sugar? How many grams of H2O are produced per gram of each sugar?
