Question
During vigorous exercise, lactic acid (C3H6O3) accumulates in the muscles and causes fatigue. When the activity level is decreased, oxygen enters the muscles and causes lactic acid to be initially oxidized to pyruvic acid and then is further oxidized to carbon dioxide and water. The balanced reaction below shows the complete oxidation of 2 mols of lactic acid. How many grams of carbon dioxide are produced if 9.5 g of lactic acid are produced during vigorous exercise?
