C6H12O6 + 6O2 --> 6CO2 + 6H2O

Tip: It's easy to remember how to balance it... 666..

Oxygen + Glucose = Carbon Dioxide + Water

Oxygen and Glucose = Need

Carbon Dioxide = Waste Products

(ATP = Universal Energy Currency)

Why respiration is considered an exothermic reaction?

An exothermic reaction is one in which heat or energy is released, and that occurs in respiration. That is how the body uses respiration -- to get energy. If it were an endothermic reaction we would need to put energy into the process and not get energy out.
