Answer:
Glucose = C6H12O6
molecular mass = 6(12) + 12(1) + 6(16)
= 72 + 12 + 96
= 180 g
Explanation:
Glucose has a chemical formula of: C6H12O6 That means glucose is made of 6 carbon atoms, 12 hydrogen atoms and 6 oxygen atoms. ... Glucose is produced during photosynthesis and acts as the fuel for many organisms.
Proteins are made of carbon, hydrogen,oxygen, and nitrogen (CHON). Nucleic acids such as DNA and RNA contain carbon,hydrogen, oxygen, nitrogen, and phosphorus(CHON P). The body also needs trace amounts of other elements such as calcium,potassium, and sulfur for proper functioning of muscles, nerves, etc.
