The given question is incomplete. The complete question is:

Photosynthesis reactions in green plants use carbon dioxide and water to produce glucose (C6H12O6) and oxygen. A plant has 88.0 g of carbon dioxide and 64.0 g of water available for photosynthesis. Determine the mass of glucose (C6H1206) produced

Answer: 60.0 g of glucose

Explanation:

To calculate the moles, we use the equation:

[tex]\text{Number of moles}=\frac{\text{Given mass}}{\text {Molar mass}}[/tex]

a) moles of [tex]CO_2[/tex]

[tex]\text{Number of moles}=\frac{88.0g}{44g/mol}=2.0moles[/tex]

b) moles of [tex]H_2O[/tex]

[tex]\text{Number of moles}=\frac{64.0g}{18g/mol}=3.5moles[/tex]

[tex]6CO_2+6H_2O\rightarrow C_{6}H_{12}O_6+6O_2[/tex]

According to stoichiometry :

6 moles of [tex]CO_2[/tex] require = 6 moles of [tex]H_2O[/tex]

Thus 2.0 moles of [tex]CO_2[/tex] require=[tex]\frac{6}{6}\times 2.0=2.0moles[/tex]  of [tex]H_2O[/tex]

Thus [tex]CO_2[/tex] is the limiting reagent as it limits the formation of product.

As 6 moles of [tex]CO_2[/tex] give =  1 moles of glucose

Thus 2.0 moles of [tex]CO_2[/tex] give =[tex]\frac{1}{6}\times 2.0=0.33moles[/tex]  of glucose

Mass of glucose = [tex]moles\times {\text {Molar mass}}=0.33moles\times 180g/mol=60g[/tex]

Thus 60.0 g of glucose will be produced from 88.0 g of carbon dioxide and 64.0 g of water  

In green plants use carbon dioxide and water to produce glucose (C6H12O6) and oxygen. A plant has 88.0 g of carbon dioxide and 64.0 g of water available for photosynthesis produces 60.0 g of glucose.

To calculate the moles, we use the equation:

  1. Number of moles Given mass Molar mass
  2. a) moles of
  3. Number of moles = (88.0g)/(44g / mol) = 2.0mol*epsilon
  4. b) moles of H2O
  5. Number of les = (64.0g)/(18g / mol) = 3.5moles
  6. According to stoichiometry
  7. 6 moles of re = 6mol of H2O

What is mole fraction ?

Mole fraction is a unit of concentration, described to be same to the range of moles of a element divided via way of means of the entire range of moles of a solution.

Thus it is well explained.
