Glucose is carbohydrate and a simple sugar that is very important to the human body.

Energy is produced for the cells in the body through the process of metabolism which oxidizes glucose to water, carbon dioxide, and some nitrogen compounds. 

The general chemical reaction equation for metabolism is:
 
C6H12O6 + 6O2 ---> 6CO2 + 6H2O

which of the following is a balanced chemical equation for the reaction of magnesium with nitrogen gas to form magnesium nitride
ioda
So the unbalanced equation would be Mg + N^2 --> Mg^3N^2

Which means the balanced equation would be 3Mg + N^2 --> Mg^3N^2

This is balance the equation out since you now has 3 magnesium and 2 nitrogen on the left side, and 3 magnesium on 2 nitrogen on the right. Double check my work though, it's been awhile.
