उत्तर

34 g of sucrose provides energy for an hour.
Hence, for a day, the mass of sucrose needed = 34 × 24 = 816 g
The balanced equation is,
\[\ce{\underset{\text{342 g}}{C12H22O11}_{(g)} + \underset{\text{12×32=384 g}}{12O2}_{(g)}->12CO2_{(g)} + 11H2O_{(l)}}\]

Thus, 342 g of sucrose require 384 g of oxygen.

∴ 816 g of sucrose will require = `816/342 × 384` = 916 g of O2

Astronaut needs to carry 916 g of O2
