If one molecule of glucose (C6H12O6) reacts completely with three molecules of oxygen (O2) what is the TOTAL number of atoms that will be in the products

Respuesta :

Answer:

30 atoms.

Explanation:

Based on law of conservation of proportion the atoms we have in reactants = atoms we have in products.

One molecule of glucose contains 6atoms of C, 12 atoms of H and 6 atoms of O, that is:

6+12+6 = 24 atoms

And 3 molecules of Oxygen are 6 atoms. The total atoms in reactants are:

24+6 = 30 atoms = atoms in products

Answer: It's 30 atoms.
