Answer:

In crystal structure close packing is define as space efficient arrangement of constituent particles to form a crystal lattice.

Explanation:

closest packing

In crystal structure close packing is define as space efficient arrangement of constituent particles to form a crystal lattice.

Difference between hexagonal closest packing and cubic closest packing

In cubic closest packing arrangement, each sphere is surrounded by 12 other spheres on the other hand in case of hexagonal close packing, layers of spheres are packed so that spheres in alternating layers overlie one another.

unit cell for each closest packing arrangement

The hexagonal closest packed arrangement has a coordination number of 12 and it consists of 6 atoms per unit cell. The face centered cubic lattice has a coordination number of 12 and it consists of 4 atoms per unit cell. In case of body centered cubic crystal the coordination number is 8 and it consists of 2 atoms per unit cell.

Glucose, c6h12o6, is used as an energy source by the human body. the overall reaction in the body is described by the equation
Art [367]
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

What mass of oxygen (O2) forms in a reaction that forms 15.90 g C6H12O6? (Molar mass of O2 = 32.00 g/mol; molar mass of C6H12O6
Dafna11 [192]

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.
