suppose you determine that a particular plant consumes 37.8 g of co 2 in one week. assuming that there is more than enough water present to react with all of the co 2, what mass of glucose (in grams) can the plant synthesize from the co 2? molar mass co 2

Respuesta :

mass of glucose (in grams) can the plant synthesize from the co 2 is 25.8g

What mass of glucose (in grams) can the plant synthesize from the co 2?

molar mass of [tex]CO_{2}[/tex]= 44.01 g/mol

molar mass of [tex]C_{6} H_{12} O_{6}[/tex] =180.18g/mol

[tex](g)CO_{2}-- > (mol)CO_{2} --- > (mol)C_{6} H_{12} O_{6}-- > (g)C_{6} H_{12} O_{6}[/tex]m

       [tex]\frac{1 mol CO_{2} }{44.01 g CO_{2}}[/tex]                     [tex]\frac{1 mol C_{6} H_{12} O_{6} }{ 6 mol CO_{2}}[/tex]                  [tex]\frac{180.18 g C_{6} H_{12} O_{6} }{ 1 mol C_{6} H_{12} O_{6} }[/tex]

37.8g x       [tex]\frac{1 mol CO_{2} }{44.01 g CO_{2}}[/tex]      x         [tex]\frac{1 mol C_{6} H_{12} O_{6} }{ 6 mol CO_{2}}[/tex]    x   [tex]\frac{180.18 g C_{6} H_{12} O_{6} }{ 1 mol C_{6} H_{12} O_{6} }[/tex]

= 25.8g  [tex]C_{6} H_{12} O_{6}[/tex]

mass of glucose (in grams) can the plant synthesize from the co 2 is 25.8g.

What precisely is glucose?

It is a monosaccharide because it is the most basic type of carbohydrate. It has one sugar, thus this indicates. It's not by itself. Galactose, ribose, and fructose are examples of additional monosaccharides. One of the body's preferred sources of fuel in the form of carbs is glucose, along with fat.
