Answer : The total number of atoms in the product are, 36 atoms.

Explanation :

Balanced chemical reaction : It is defined as the reaction in which the number of atoms of individual elements present on reactant side must be equal to the product side.

When 1 molecule of glucose reacts completely with 3 molecules of oxygen then it react to give 6 molecules of carbon dioxide and 6 molecules of water.

The balanced chemical reaction will be:

$C_6H_{12}O_6+6O_2\rightarrow 6CO_2+6H_2O$

There are 3 atoms in carbon dioxide and 3 atoms in water.

Total number of atoms in the product = 6(3) + 6(3) = 36 atoms

Thus, the total number of atoms in the product are, 36 atoms.

What is one differrence between a mixture and a compound

Ann [662]

Answer:

A mixture can contain components in any proportions while a compound contains components in fixed proportions. All components in a mixture do not chemically react, while the components in a compound do react and their original properties are lost.

1.) A compound is a substance that originates from two or more separate elements. It shares some similarities with a mixture.

2.) A compound has quite different properties from which it was formed. It also cannot be separated easily. Compounds are formed by chemical reactions.

3.) A pure substance has a constant composition and has consistent properties. It can be a compound or an element, but its composition is constant.

Hope this helps. :)

Enter a chemical equation for HI(aq) showing how it is an acid or a base according to the Arrhenius definition. Consider that st

Answer:

HI (aq) → H⁺ (aq) + I⁻ (aq)

HI (aq) + H₂O(l) → H₃O⁺ (aq) + I⁻ (aq)

Explanation:

The Arrhenius acid concept indicates that a substance behaves like acid if it produces hydrogen ions H⁺ or hydronium ions H₃O⁺ in water. A substance will be classified as a base if it produces OH⁻ hydroxide ions in water. This way of defining acids and bases works well for aqueous solutions.

When we mix HI (aq) and water, we are increasing [H₃O⁺]

HI (aq) → H⁺ (aq) + I⁻ (aq)

HI (aq) + H₂O(l) → H₃O⁺ (aq) + I⁻ (aq)
