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
The answer is: the mass of oxygen is 16.95 grams.
The overall balanced photosynthesis reaction:
6CO₂ + 6H₂O → C₆H₁₂O₆ + 6O₂.
m(C₆H₁₂O₆) = 15.90 g; mass of glucose.
n(C₆H₁₂O₆) = m(C₆H₁₂O₆) ÷ M(C₆H₁₂O₆).
n(C₆H₁₂O₆) = 15.9 g ÷ 180.18 g/mol.
n(C₆H₁₂O₆) = 0.088 mol; amount of glucose.
From chemical reaction: n(C₆H₁₂O₆) : n(O₂) = 1 : 6.
n(O₂) = 6 · 0.088 mol.
n(O₂) = 0.53 mol; amount of oxygen.
m(O₂) = 0.53 mol · 32.00 g/mol.
m(O₂) = 16.95 g; mass of oxygen.
