Question $15$ of $24(1$ point$)|$ Question Attempt: $2$ of Unlimited

The human body burns glucose $(C_6{H}_{12}{O}_6)$ for energy according to this chemical reaction:

$C_6{H}_{12}{O}_6+6O_{2}6C{O}_2+6H_{2}O$

The products of the reaction are carbon dioxide $(C{O}_2)$ and water $(H_{2}O).$ his body as a gas, every time he exhales. Each kilogram of body fat lost requires exhaling about $2\mathrm{.}8kg$ of carbon dioxide.

Calculate how many breaths it takes an average person to "exhale" $1\mathrm{.}50kg$ of fat. Round your answer to the nearest thousand.

You'll need to know that the density of $C{O}_2$ is $2\mathrm{.}0k\frac{g}{m^3}.$
