In photosynthesis, green plants convert carbon dioxide and water into glucose (C6H12O6) according to the following equation: 6CO2(g)+6H2O(l)→ C6H12O6(aq)+6O2(g). Estimate ΔH for the reaction using bond dissociation energies from Table 7.1. Give your answer in kcal/mol and kJ/mol. C6H12O6 has five C−C bonds, seven C−H bonds, seven C−O bonds, and five O−H bonds. Express your answers as integers separated by a comma.

Expert Solution

6CO2(g)+6H2O(l)→ C6H12O6(aq)+6O2(g)

ΔH = bond energy of reactasnts - bond energy of products

= 6(O=C= O) + 6(H-O-H) - [ (5(C-C) + 7(C-H) + 7(C-O) + 5(O-H) + 6(O=O) ]

= 12(C=O) + 12(O-H) - [ (5(C-C) + 7(C-H) + 7(C-O) + 5(O-H) + 6(O=O) ]

= 12*799 + 12*467 - ( 5*347+ 7*413 + 7*358 + 5*467+ 6*495)

= 15192 - 12437 = 2755KJ

C6H12O6 has five C−C bonds, seven C−H bonds, seven C−O bonds, and five O−H bonds. = 1735 Kj, 2891Kj , 2506KJ, 2335KJ
