The process of inhalingg and exhaling by the livingg creatures is respiration. Respiration takes place within the cell of entire body.The lungs play important role in the process of respiration and all organelles present in the cell.They work separately for the body during respiration.There is also mitochonbria in the cell which produce energy to the body when respiration process continues. In chemistry the process is shown through simple equation in symbolic term of gasses.In this respiration it is shown,how asses as reactants take part in chemical reaction in the body and form the product,under certain conditions of nature. The best respiration equation is Glucose+ Oxygen__Carbondioxide+ Water vapour+Energy
C6 H12 O6+ O2__ Co2+ H2O+ Energy
This is te reaction which takes part in respiration. In which glucose react with oxygen and produce Carbon Dioxide with water vapour and energy. Now we see, how many aton of each reactant take part in this chemical reaction and form, how many atoms of products.It will be come in observation, when we balance this equation.Now the respiration equation after balancing it
C6 H12 O6 +6O2__6CO2 + 6H2O + Energy
After balancing the respiration equation, we come to know that an atom of glucose take part with 6 atoms of Carbon Dioxide and form 6 _ atoms of Carbon Dioxide, 6 _ atoms of water and amount of energy. In case of Anaerobic respiration the above equation becomes as one atom of glucose is converted into ethanol, Carbon Dioxide and energy the chemical reaction is as
C6 H12 O6__C2 H5 OH + CO2 + Energy.
After blancing the anaerobic respiration equation can be writen as
C6 H12 O6__ 2C2 H5 OH + 2CO2 + Energy
In this equation one glucose atom is converted into 2_atoms of Ethonal and 2_ atoms of Carbon Dioxide and Energy.
