The correct option is D.
The reactants that combine together to form glucose are carbon dioxide, water and energy from the sun. Six molecules of carbon dioxide combine with six molecules of water in the presence of sunlight to form glucose. The chemical equation for the reaction is given below"
6CO2 + 6H2O + Sunlight = C6H12O6.
Answer:
Neutrons.
Explanation:
Isotopes can be defined as the atom of an element that has the same number of protons but different number of neutrons. This ultimately implies that, the isotopes of an element have the same atomic number (number of protons) but different atomic mass (number of nucleons).
The isotope of an element is denoted by
Where; X is the symbol of the element.
A is the atomic mass or number of nucleons.
Z is the atomic number or number of protons.
<em>Therefore, the number of neutrons = A - Z</em>
<em>Isotopes of carbon differ with respect to the number of neutrons.</em>
<em>Basically, there are three (3) Isotopes of Carbon and these are;</em>
<em>1. Carbon-12: it has an atomic mass of 12 with 6 numbers of proton and neutron respectively. </em>
<em>2. Carbon-13: it has an atomic mass of 13 with 6 numbers of proton and 7 numbers of neutron. </em>
<em>3. Carbon-14: it has an atomic mass of 14 with 6 numbers of proton and 8 numbers of neutron. </em>
X=107 because the sides of a hexagon must add up to 720
All atoms consist of a nucleus with protons and neutrons that is surrounded by a sea of electrons. If Uranium-235 is bombarded with a neutron then the atom's atomic number will remain the same but its mass will increase by 1 unit. Thus, it will temporarily become Uranium-236.
