Compare the heat evolved in the combustion of sucrose


Compare the heat evolved in the combustion of sucrose (C12H22O11) at the constant pressure per mole of oxygen and plasmatic acid(C16H32O2) with the combustion of a typical protein, for which the empirical formula C4.3H6.6NO. Suppose for the protein that combustion yields CO2 (g), H2O (l) and N2 (g). Assume that the enthalpies of combustion of plasmatic acid, sucrose and a typical protein are 10035 kJ/mol, 5647 kJ/mol and the 22.0 kJ/mol, respectively. Based on these calculations, calculate the average heat evolved per mole of oxygen consumed, assuming the combustion of equal moles of plasmatic acid, sucrose and the protein.
