Explanation:
The equation of the reaction is given as;
6CO2 + 6H2O → C6H12O6 + 6O2
How many molecules of CO2 are present?
6 moles
How many atoms of oxygen are present in the reactants?
(6 * 2) + (6 * 1 ) = 12 + 6 = 18
How many atoms of carbon are present in the products?
(6 * 1 ) = 6
How many total atoms are present in C6H12O6?
6 + 12 + 6 = 24 atoms
Is the equation above balanced or unbalanced?
This is a balanced equation since the number of atoms of the elements is the same in the reactant and products.
