worty [1.4K]

Answer:

The correct statement is:

E - The entropy of the products is greater than the entropy of the reactants.

Explanation:

C₆H₁₂O₆ + 6 O₂ → 6 CO₂ + 6 H₂O

As glucose is a large molecule and then it is transformed into many molecules of water and carbon dioxide, the entropy of the system increases. If the number of molecules increases, the disorder increases.

Initial state: 7 molecules (1 glucose + 6 oxygen)

Final state: 12 molecules (6 carbon dioxide + 6 water)

Explain how the Law of Conservation of Mass is demonstrated In photosynthesis and cellular Respiration chemical equations. (Less
Oksi-84 [34.3K]

Explanation:

  • According to the law of conservation of mass, In a chemical reaction, mass is neither created nor destroyed. In other words, the total mass for the reactants needs to equal the total mass of the products.
  • <u><em>In photosynthesis the reactants are 6 carbon dioxide, 6 water and sunlight. The mass of these reactants adds to equal the mass of the products, which are 1 glucose and 6 oxygen. </em></u>
  • <u><em>Cellular respiration on the other hand uses glucose and oxygen gas to produce water, carbon dioxide, and a usable form of energy known as ATP.</em></u>
  • Cellular respiration is the opposite of photosynthesis, such that the products of photosynthesis are the reactants of cellular respiration. Cellular respiration also obeys the law of conservation of mass.
