The molar mass of C6H12O6 is 180.1548 g/mol. The molar mass of C6 is 72.06 g/mol. So you divide the molar mass of C6 by the molar mass of C6H12O6 and multiply it by 100: (72.06g C6/180.1548g C6H1206)x100= .3999 x 100= 39.99% Carbon in glucose (40% rounded)

Answer : The percent composition of carbon in glucose (C_6H_{12}O_6) is, 6.66%

Solution : Given,

Molar mass of carbon = 12.01 g/mole

Molar mass of hydrogen = 1.0079 g/mole

Molar mass of oxygen = 16.00 g/mole

Molar mass of glucose (C_6H_{12}O_6) = (6\times 12.01)+(12\times 1.0079)+(6\times 16)=180.1548g/mole

Formula used :

\% \text{composition of carbon}=\frac{\text{Mass of carbon}}{\text{Total mass of glucose}}\times 100

Now put all the given values in this formula, we get

\% \text{composition of carbon}=\frac{12.01g/mole}{180.1548g/mole}\times 100=6.66\%

Therefore, the percent composition of carbon in glucose (C_6H_{12}O_6) is, 6.66%

A. They are the most destructive earthquake waves.

D. They can move in a rolling pattern through rock, like an ocean  wave.

Explanation:

Surface waves are seismic waves that cause the most destruction during an earthquake.

Rayleigh waves are known to cause rolling pattern of rocks just like an ocean waves.

  • Seismic waves are elastic waves that notably transmits energy.
  • They usually accompany earthquakes.
  • There are two broad categories of these waves.
  • Surface and body waves.
  • Seismic surface waves are low frequency and long wavelength waves.
  • They travel very close to the surface.
  • They are made up of Love and Rayleigh waves.
  • Love waves travels laterally in a horizontal fashion.
  • Rayleigh waves rolls like ocean waves in the ground.
  • The bulk of the destruction caused during an earthquakes is due to these waves.
  • They are the last waves to arrive a seismic station
