how many protons in 5 moles of C6H12O6
Answers
Answer:
i.e. mass of 1 mole of glucose, C6H12O6 = (6 × 12.01 + 12 × 1.01 + 6 × 16.00) g = 180.18 g (using atomic weight data to 2 decimals) 1 mole of carbon atoms weighs 12.01 g and there are 6 moles of C atoms in 1 mole of glucose, so the mass of carbon in 1 mole of glucose = 6 × 12.01 g = 72.06 g.
ANSWER
A glucose molecule has 96 protons, 84 neutrons and 96 electrons.
A glucose molecule's chemical formula is: C
6
H
12
O
6
.
This is made up of 6 carbon atoms, 12 hydrogen atoms and 6 oxygen atoms.
For each C there are - 6 protons, 6 electrons and 6 neutrons
For each H there is - 1 proton, electron and no neutrons
For each O there are - 8 protons, 8 electrons and 8 neutrons
So in C
6
H
12
O
6
there are:
C:6×6= 36 protons, 36 electrons and 36 neutrons
H:1×12= 12 protons, 0 electrons and no neutrons
O:8×6= 48 protons, 48 electrons and 48 neutrons
