Citric acid (H3C6H5O7) is a product of the fermentation of sucrose (C12H22O11) in air.
C12H22O11(aq) + 3 O2(g) 2 H3C6H5O7(aq) + 3 H2O(l)
Determine the mass of citric acid produced when 3.20 mol C12H22O11 is used.
1229.60 g
Citric acid has the molecular formula C6H8O7 so you can add the molar masses of the elements from the Periodic Table.
C has a molar mass of 12.01 g/mol, H has 1.01 g/mol and O has 15.999 g/mol.
Now you calculate the total molar mass= (6*12.01 + 8*1.01 + 7*15.999)
---
This yields a molar weight of 192.124 g/mol (anhydrous). When in solution as the monohydrate, this increases to 210.14 g/mol .
CO2 (carbon dioxide) gas is produced during the krebs/citric acid cycle
Malic acid is an acid that is tart and produced naturally in unripe fruits. Citric acid is naturally in the juice of sour fruits and commercially made. Commercial citric acid is made from fermented sugar.

Citric Acid
sodium citrate is produced.
Citric acid is usually produced commercially by using a micro-organism called aspergillus niger to ferment sugar, glucose syrup, molasses etc.
Yes, 34-36 ATP are produced during the citric acid cycle with another two produced during glycolysis for a total of 36-38 ATP during cellular respiration.
