The combustion of glucose, c6 h12 o6 (s), produces carbon dioxide, co2 (g), and water, h2 o(g), according to the equation below. mc020-1.jpg the enthalpy of the reaction is –2,840 kj. what is the heat of combustion, per mole, of glucose? –2,840 kj/mol –473.3 kj/mol 473.3 kj/mol 2,840 kj/mol

 –2,840 kJ/mol

Explanation:  

Heat of combustion is the heat produced when 1 mole of the substance is completely oxidized. The production of heat means the reaction is an exothermic process and gives off energy.

According to the given balanced chemical equation:

1 mole of glucose is being completely oxidized to give carbon dioxide and water and thus heat of combustion is -2840 kJ/mol.
