Question 3 (2 points) Using the following equation how many grams of water you would get from 846 g of
glucose:
C6H12O6 + 602 + 6CO2 + 6H20 + energy
Your
Answer
units g)

The mass of water produced is 507.6 g

Explanation:

The number of moles is defined as the ratio of the mass of a substance to its molar mass. The equation used is:

......(1)

Given mass of glucose = 846 g

Molar mass of glucose = 180 g/mol

Plugging values in equation 1:

The given chemical equation follows:

By the stoichiometry of the reaction:

If 1 mole of glucose produces 6 moles of water

So, 4.7 moles of glucose will produce = of water

Molar mass of water = 18 g/mol

Plugging values in equation 1:

Hence, the mass of water produced is 507.6 g
