Answer:
H =2; I = 2; J = 2
Explanation:
Carbon is element 6 in the Periodic Table.
Start at element 1 (H) and count from left to right until you reach element 6 (C).
You get the electron configuration
C: 1s² 2s²2p².
Thus,
H =2; I = 2; J = 2
Explanation:
Ions form when atoms gain or lose electrons. This is so that they form a full outer shell of electrons. When an atom gains electrons it becomes a negative ion, because electrons are negatively charged. For example, all halogens (group 7 or 17) form negative ions as they gain an electron forming a 1- charge. When an atom loses electrons it becomes a positive ion, as it is losing some negative charge from the electrons. This would be for example, alkali metals (group 1) which lose an electron to form a positive ion with a 1+ charge, (ALL metals form positive ions).
C stands for carbon atoms. In glucose thera are 6 carbon atoms, so 6 carbon atoms are used to produce glucose.
Answer: C) 6
