Answer 1

Question :-

calculate the mass of water required to produce 36 g of glucose during the process of photosynthesis in plants.

Answer :-

• 21.6g water will be required to produce 36g of glucose.

Step by step explanation :-

The equation of photosynthesis reaction is as follows :

$\rm\implies{6H_2O + 6CO_2 \rightarrow C_6H_{12} O_6 + 6O_2}$

From the above equation, 6 mole of water produces 1 mole of glucose.

108g of water required to produce =180g glucose.

36 gram glucose is formed by

$\rm\longrightarrow{ \frac{108 \times 36}{180} = \frac{3888}{180} = 21.6}$

Hence, 21.6 g water will be required to produce 36g of glucose.
