A plant releases 24 molecules of carbon dioxide.
How many glucose molecules did the plant break down

Sagot :

(The question should I think be the plant USES 24 molecules of carbon dioxide because carbon dioxide is a reactant in this reaction not a product.)

carbon dioxide + water = oxygen + glucose

CO2 + H2O = O2 + C6H12O6

Balance the equation.

6 CO2 + 6 H2O = 6 O2 + C6H12O6

Now we already have 6 carbon dioxide molecules so 24 are used we multiply by 4. And we do that for every coefficient.

So

24 carbon dioxide molecules
24 water molecules
24 oxygen atoms

4 glucose molecules!!!

Hope that helps. Brainliest would be appreciated lab
