Answer:
54 g
Explanation:
Given data:
Mass of carbon = 18 g
Mass of CO₂ = 72 g
Mass of oxygen needed = ?
Solution:
Chemical reaction:
C + O₂ → CO₂
according to law of conservation mass, mass can neither be created nor destroyed in a chemical equation.
This law was given by French chemist Antoine Lavoisier in 1789. According to this law mass of reactant and mass of product must be equal, because masses are not created or destroyed in a chemical reaction.
In given photosynthesis reaction:
6CO₂ + 6H₂O + energy → C₆H₁₂O₆ + 6O₂
there are six carbon atoms, eighteen oxygen atoms and twelve hydrogen atoms on the both side of equation so this reaction followed the law of conservation of mass.
In a similar way,
C + O₂ → CO₂
18 g + X = 72
X = 72 -18
X = 54 g
Thus, 54 g of O₂ are required.

Answer:
protons : 10
electron : 10
neutron : 10
Explanation:
Protons will usually be the same as the electrons when its a <u>Atom</u> (when its a ion or covalent bond or simple bond they will most likely be different)
the atomic number represents protons and electrons
the mass number - the atomic number = neutron
