  1. The Great Gummy Worm Sacrifice Today, we will burn a gummy worm containing 2.1 g of sucrose (C12H22O11). When one mole of sucrose burns in oxygen gas, it produces carbon dioxide gas, water vapor, releases 5 640 000 joules of energy. 1. Write a balanced chemical equation for the reaction: 2. The reaction releases 5 640 000 joules for each mole of sucrose consumed, add 5 640kJ to the product side of your equation. 3. Calculate the mass of oxygen needed to completely react the 2.1 g of sucrose in the gummy worm 4. Now use the same strategy to calculate how much energy is released by the combustion of 2.1 g of sucrose

  2. The Great Gummy Worm Sacrifice Today, we will burn a gummy worm containing 2.1 g of sucrose (C12H22O11). When one mole of sucrose burns in oxygen gas, it produces carbon dioxide gas, water vapor, releases 5 640 000 joules of energy. 1. Write a balanced chemical equation for the reaction: +5 640kJ C12H22O6 + O2 --> CO2 + H2O 11 12 12 2. The reaction releases 5 640 000 joules for each mole of sucrose consumed, add 5 640kJ to the product side of your equation.

It sounds dangerous. Let’s try it!
