The number of oxygen atoms in each oxygen molecule  

Explanation:

The subscript in 6O₂ represents the number of oxygen atoms in each oxygen molecule.

A is wrong. The subscript tells you nothing about the atomic weight of oxygen.

B is wrong. The 6 tells you how many molecules of O₂ are produced with each molecule of glucose.

D is wrong. The 6 tells you the number of oxygen atoms needed to balance the equation.
