The reaction will generally form more reactants than products.
The answer is: the mass of oxygen is 16.95 grams.
The overall balanced photosynthesis reaction:
6CO₂ + 6H₂O → C₆H₁₂O₆ + 6O₂.
m(C₆H₁₂O₆) = 15.90 g; mass of glucose.
n(C₆H₁₂O₆) = m(C₆H₁₂O₆) ÷ M(C₆H₁₂O₆).
n(C₆H₁₂O₆) = 15.9 g ÷ 180.18 g/mol.
n(C₆H₁₂O₆) = 0.088 mol; amount of glucose.
From chemical reaction: n(C₆H₁₂O₆) : n(O₂) = 1 : 6.
n(O₂) = 6 · 0.088 mol.
n(O₂) = 0.53 mol; amount of oxygen.
m(O₂) = 0.53 mol · 32.00 g/mol.
m(O₂) = 16.95 g; mass of oxygen.
Answer:
2-ethoxy-2-methylpropan-1-ol
Explanation:
On this reaction, we have an "<u>epoxide"</u> (2-methyl-1,2-epoxypropane). Additionally, we have <u>acid medium</u> (due to the sulfuric acid 
). The acid medium will produce the <u>hydronium ion</u> (
). This ion would be attacked by the oxygen of the epoxide. Then a <u>carbocation</u> would be produced, in this case, the most stable carbocation is the <u>tertiary one</u>. Then an <u>ethanol</u> molecule acts as a nucleophile and will attack the carbocation. Finally, a <u>deprotonation </u>step takes place to produce <u>2-ethoxy-2-methylpropan-1-ol</u>.
See figure 1
