Which of the following shows the conservation of mass during cellular respiration? 3 CO2 3 H2O energy → 3 C6H12O6 3 O2 6 CO2 6 H

The reaction that has been, following the law of conservation of mass has been $\rm C_6H_1_2O_6\;+\;6\;O_2\;\rightarrow\;6\;CO_2\;+\;6\;H_2O\;+\;Energy$ .

The law of conservation has been given in the chemical reaction that there has been no loss or gain of the mass and energy.

The law of conservation has been evident when there has been an equal number of atoms of each element on the product and the reactant side.

<h3 /><h3>Conservation of mass in Cellular respiration</h3>

The following reactions have been identified as:

$\rm 3\;CO_2\;+\;3\;H_2O\;+\;Energy\;\rightarrow\;3\;C_6H_1_2O_6$

Carbon atoms

Reactant = 3

Product = 18

Oxygen atoms

Reactant = 9

Product = 18

Hydrogen atoms

Reactant = 6

Product = 36

The number of atoms is not equal on the product and reactant side, thus not follows the law of conservation of mass.

$\rm 3\;O_2\;+\;6\;CO_2\;+\;6\;H_2O\;+\;Energy\;\rightarrow\;C_6H_1_2O_6\;+\;6\;O_2$

Carbon atoms

Reactant = 6

Product = 6

Oxygen atoms

Reactant = 24

Product = 18

Hydrogen atoms

Reactant = 12

Product = 12

The number of atoms is not equal on the product and reactant side, thus not follows the law of conservation of mass.

$\rm C_6H_1_2O_6\;+\;6\;O_2\;\rightarrow\;6\;CO_2\;+\;6\;H_2O\;+\;Energy$

Carbon atoms

Reactant = 6

Product = 6

Oxygen atoms

Reactant = 18

Product = 18

Hydrogen atoms

Reactant = 12

Product = 12

The number of atoms is equal on the product and reactant side, thus follows the law of conservation of mass.

$\rm 6\;H_2O\;+\;C_6H_1_2O_6\;\rightarrow\;6\;O_2\;+\;Energy$

Carbon atoms

Reactant = 6

Product = 0

Oxygen atoms

Reactant = 12

Product = 12

Hydrogen atoms

Reactant = 24

Product = 0

The number of atoms is not equal on the product and reactant side, thus not follows the law of conservation of mass.

Thus, the reaction that has been following the law of conservation of mass has been $\rm C_6H_1_2O_6\;+\;6\;O_2\;\rightarrow\;6\;CO_2\;+\;6\;H_2O\;+\;Energy$ .
