Question

respiration respiration is considered as exothermic reaction why​

Answer 1

Answer:

Respiration is a burning process of food in body to produce energy. Respiration is considered as an exothermic reaction because, in respiration process, oxidation of glucose takes place which produces a large amount of heat energy which stored in the form of ATP. This is shown in following chemical equation

C6H12O6 ( glucose ) + 6O2 → 6CO2 + 6H2O + Energy In the form of ATP ( Adenosine Tri Phosphate )

Answer 2

$<bullet>$

Respiration is considered as an exothermic reaction because in respiration oxidation of glucose takes place which produces large amount of heat energy.

C6H12O6 (aq) + 6O2 (g) → 6CO2 (g) + 6H2O (l) + Energy
