C6H12O6 + 6O2 ==> 6CO2 + 6H2O
mols C6H12O6 = grams/molar mass = ?
Convert mols glucose to mols O2 using the coefficients in the balanced equation. It takes 6 mols O2 for every mol glucose.
Now convert mols O2 to volume. Use PV = nRT at NTP. NTP is 20 C (293.15 K) and 1 atm.
Post your work if you get stuck.
