Answer:

it was Millikan. He conducted the oil drop experiment. Thomson determined the electon charge not the quantity. Rutherford used the gold foil experiment to find positive charge and that most of the atom is empty space. Dalton proposed that matter was made of small particles called atoms but that was a concept already proposed by ancient greeks. Dalton also proposed the atomic theory.

If one molecule of glucose (C6H120) reacts completely with three molecules of oxygen (O2), what is the TOTAL number of atoms

nalin [4]

Answer : The total number of atoms in the product are, 36 atoms.

Explanation :

Balanced chemical reaction : It is defined as the reaction in which the number of atoms of individual elements present on reactant side must be equal to the product side.

When 1 molecule of glucose reacts completely with 3 molecules of oxygen then it react to give 6 molecules of carbon dioxide and 6 molecules of water.

The balanced chemical reaction will be:

$C_6H_{12}O_6+6O_2\rightarrow 6CO_2+6H_2O$
