What is the value of RQ for fats?
Advertisements
उत्तर
Its value can be one, zero, more than 1 or less than one.
RQ = `("volume of CO"_2 " evolved")/("Volume of O"_2 " consumed")`
RQ is less than one when the respiratory substrate is either fat or protein.
\[\ce{C57H104O6 + 80 O2 -> 57 CO2 + 52H2O}\]
RQ = `(57" CO"_2)/(80" O"_2)`
RQ = 0.71
RQ is about 0.7 for most of the common fats.
