Grain Storage Structures and Silos

Aerobic respiration of moist stored grain oxidizes glucose: $C_6H_{12}O_6 + 6 O_2 \to 6 CO_2 + 6 H_2O + 2835\text{ kJ/mol}$. For each mole of glucose ($180\text{ g}$) oxidized, the respiratory quotient ($RQ = \frac{\text{Moles of } CO_2 \text{ produced}}{\text{Moles of } O_2 \text{ consumed}}$) is:
