If a sugar crystal has 1000 molecules how many atoms are present? PLEASE HELP

This will depend on the type of sugar, but since glucose is the standard as far as sugars go, we'll use it. The chemical formula for glucose is C6H12O6, meaning it has six carbon atoms, twelve hydrogen atoms, and six oxygen atoms, for a total of 24 atoms. If you have 1000 glucose molecules in a crystal, you have a total of 24,000 atoms (24 X 1000).

Answer:

One molecule of glucose sugar contains 6 carbon atom, 12 hydrogen atom, and 6 oxygen atom. So there are 24 atoms present in one molecule of glucose sugar.

So if there are 1000 molecules of glucose sugar present in a sugar crystal than there will be 6000 carbon atoms, 12000 hydrogen atoms, and 6000 oxygen atoms will be present making a total of 24000 atoms in 1000 molecules of sugar crystal.

Therefore, there will be 24000 atoms present in 1000 molecules of sugar crystal of glucose.

Alternation of generation

Nastasia [14]

Answer:

The answer to this question is given below in this explanation section.

Explanation:

"Alternation of generation"

Alternation of generations is the type of life cycle that occurs in those plant and algae in the archaeologist and the heterokontophyta that have distinct haploid sexual and diploid asexual stages.In these groups a multicellular haploid gametophyte with n chromosomes alternates with a multicellular diploid sporophyte with 2n chromosomes made up of n pairs.A mature sporophyte produces haploid spores by meiosis a process which reduces the number of chromosomes to half from 2n to n.

Two haploid spores germinate and grow into a haploid gametophyte.At maturity ,the gametophyte produces gametes by mitosis which does not alter the number of chromosomes.Two gametes from different organism of the same species fuse to diploid zygote,which develop into a diploid sporophyte . This cycle from gametophyte to sporophyte in the way in which all land plant and many algae undergo sexual reproduction.

sveta [45]

The answer to the question is that the behavior is an example of overproduction. A frog needs to lay thousands of eggs because so many of them die in the process of hatching to tadpole stage to frog. A frog lays so many eggs in the hope that a few of them will be able to reach adulthood and be able to reproduce the species in the future.

I think its D. Mitosis is the division of a parent cell, producing 2 identical daughter cells whereas meiosis is the division of 2 germ cells, producing 4 non-identical gametes.
