A 300 Kg Black Bear Hibernates in the Winter H(combustion) = -2,830 KJ/mol, Molar Mass = 180 G/mol)
A)
Multiple Choice
A 300 kg black bear hibernates in the winter. During hibernation the bear's body temperature drops from 37 to 31°C. How many grams of glucose must the bear metabolize to restore its body temperature to normal? Assume the bear's body is mostly water with a specific heat capacity of 4.2 J/(g . °C) and that all the energy from the combustion of glucose is used to raise the bear's body temperature. (Glucose: H(combustion) = -2,830 kJ/mol, molar mass = 180 g/mol)
A) 7,560 g
B) 2.67 g
C) 2,975 g
D) 481 g
E) 16.5 g
