Question

Under anaerobic conditions, glucose is broken down in muscle tissue to form lactic acid according to the reaction C6H12O6(s)→2CH3CHOHCOOH(s) Thermodynamic data at T=298K for glucose and lactic acid are given below.

  ΔH∘f (kJ⋅mol−1) C∘P,m (J⋅K−1⋅mol−1) S∘(J⋅K−1⋅mol−1)
Glucose(s) −1273.1 219.2 209.2
Lactic Acid(s) −673.6 127.6 192.1

Calculate ΔG∘r at T=337K using the data in the table. Assume that all heat capacities are constant in this temperature interval and that ΔH∘r and ΔS∘r are constant in this temperature interval.
