When glucose is consumed, it reacts with oxygen in the body to produce carbon dioxide, water, and energy. How many grams of carbon dioxide would be produced if 25.9 g of C6H12O6 completely reacted with oxygen? C6H12O6 + 6 O2 → 6 H2O + 6 CO2
Added by Norman B.
Step 1
First, we need to find the molar mass of glucose (C6H12O6) and carbon dioxide (CO2). Molar mass of glucose: C: 12.01 g/mol (6 atoms) = 72.06 g/mol H: 1.01 g/mol (12 atoms) = 12.12 g/mol O: 16.00 g/mol (6 atoms) = 96.00 g/mol Total molar mass of glucose = 72.06 + Show more…

Glucose, C6H12O6, is used as an energy source by the human body. The overall reaction in the body is described by the equation C6H12O6(aq)+6O2(g)⟶6CO2(g)+6H2O(l) Calculate the number of grams of oxygen required to convert 58.0 g of glucose to CO2 and H2O. mass of O2: g Calculate the number of grams of CO2 produced. mass of CO2:

Glucose reacts with oxygen to form carbon dioxide and water according to the following unbalanced reaction: C6H12O6 (s, glucose) + O2 (g) → CO2 (g) + H2O (g) If we start with 25.5 g of glucose and 37.3 g of oxygen, how many grams of the excess reactant are leftover after the reaction is complete? Report your answer to THREE significant figures.

Glucose, C6H12O6, reacts with oxygen, O2, to give CO2 and H2O. What mass of oxygen (in grams) is required for the complete reaction of 25.0 g of glucose? What masses of CO2 and water (in grams) are formed? Remember, first you must write and balance the equation.
