Not only due trees "fix" carbon but so do green vegetables. photosynthesis in spinach leaves produces glucose via the calvin cycle which involves the fixation of co2 with ribulose 1-5 bisphosphate to form 3-phosphoglycerate via c3h8p2011(aq) + h2o(aq) + co2(g) → 2 czh4po3(aq) + 2 h+(aq) if 15.0 g of 3-phosphoglycerate is formed by this reaction at t = 298 k and p = 1.00 atm what volume of co2 is fixed? [1.00 l]

Answer : The volume of gas is 1.00 L

Explanation :

First we have to determine the moles of .

Molar mass of = 182.9 g/mole

Now we have to calculate the moles of .

The given balanced chemical reaction is:

From the reaction we conclude that,

As, 2 moles of produce from 1 mole of

So, 0.0820 moles of produce from of

Now we have to calculate the volume of gas.

Using ideal gas equation:

where,

P = pressure of gas = 1.00 atm

V = volume of gas = ?

T = temperature of gas = 298 K

n = number of moles of gas = 0.041 mole

R = gas constant = 0.0821 L.atm/mole.K

Now put all the given values in the ideal gas equation, we get:

Therefore, the volume of gas is 1.00 L

3 hours because it is a decent distance.
