Question

The chemical formula for glucose is C6H12O6. Therefore, four molecules of glucose will have carbon atoms, hydrogen atoms, and oxygen atoms.

Answer 1

If there are 4 molecules of glucose, there will be 24 carbon, 48 hydrogen, and 24 oxygen.

Answer 2

Answer;

- 24 carbon atoms, 48 hydrogen atoms and 24 oxygen atoms

Explanation;

• Glucose is a simple carbohydrate and a compound that is made of elements carbon, hydrogen and oxygen.
• One molecules of glucose contains six carbon atoms, 12 hydrogen atoms, and six oxygen atoms.
• Therefore, four molecules of glucose will have 24 carbon atoms, 48 hydrogen atoms and 24 oxygen atoms.
• That is; 4(C₆H₁₂O₆), thus, C = 4×6 =24, H = 4×12 =48, and O = 4×6 =24.
