Some Test Strips for Blood Glucose Meters Utilize [Fe(CN)6]3− as an Electron

Question 185

Multiple Choice

Some test strips for blood glucose meters utilize [Fe(CN) 6]3− as an electron transport mediator for the indirect electrochemical detection of the two-electron oxidation of D-glucose into D-gluconolactone, as shown in the figure below. Some test strips for blood glucose meters utilize [Fe(CN) <sub>6</sub>]<sup>3−</sup> as an electron transport mediator for the indirect electrochemical detection of the two-electron oxidation of D-glucose into D-gluconolactone, as shown in the figure below.   How many moles of electrons will be detected by the glucose meter if 160 μg of [Fe(CN) <sub>6</sub>]<sup>3−</sup> (molar mass 211.9 g/mol)  react in a test strip during a measurement and each [Fe(CN) <sub>6</sub>]<sup>3−</sup> ion reacts only once? A) 0.38 μmol B) 0.76 μmol C) 1.32 μmol D) 1.51 μmol How many moles of electrons will be detected by the glucose meter if 160 μg of [Fe(CN) 6]3− (molar mass 211.9 g/mol) react in a test strip during a measurement and each [Fe(CN) 6]3− ion reacts only once?
