Answer 1

sorry bro I was just answerig a question

Answer 2

Explanation:

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
