Answer:

The 3rd sentence is the wrong one:

'All carbohydrates have the general formula Cn(H2O)n'

Explanation:

This is wrong because it's a formula that holds true for simple sugars, but not for complex ones.

Take sucrose as an example, its formula is C12H22O11. Clearly it's C12(H2O)11.

This is so, because when a glycosidic bond is formed, it does so with the loss of a water molecule; hence the reaction is called condensation.

If a plant produces 4.76 mol of C6H12O6, how many moles of H2O are needed
mylen [45]
Hello!

The overall photosynthesis reaction is the following one:

6CO₂ + 6H₂O → C₆H₁₂O₆ + 6O₂

To calculate how many moles of H₂O are needed it a plant produces 4,76 moles of C₆H₁₂O₆ (glucose) we'll need to use the following conversion factor, applying the reaction coefficients from the chemical equation of the photosynthesis reaction:

4,76 moles C_6H_1_2O_6* \frac{6 moles H_2O}{1 mol C_6H_1_2O_6}=28,56 moles H_2O

So, 28,56 moles of H₂O are required by a plant to produce 4,76 moles of Glucose, in the Photosynthesis reaction. 

Have a nice day!
