Answer:

C: the repulsion of electrons and electrons.

How many moles of glucose can be produced

Arturiano [62]

Answer:

moles of glucose

2.3166 moles of glucose

Explanation:

The balance reaction for the formation of glucose is :

$6CO_{2}+6H_{2}O\rightarrow C_{6}H_{12}O_{6}+6O_{2}$

here , CO2 = carbon dioxide

H2O = water

C6H12O6 = glucose

O2 = Oxygen

According to this equation :

6 mole of CO2 = 6 mole of H2O = 1 mole of C6H12O6 = 6 mole of O2

We are asked to calculate the mole of Glucose from carbon dioxide.

So,

6 mole of CO2 produce = 1 mole of C6H12O6

1 mole of CO2 will produce =

$\frac{1}{6}$ moles of glucose

13.9 moles of CO2 will produce :

$\frac{1}{6}\times 13.9$

=2.3166 moles of glucose

Note : first , Always calculate for one mole (By dividing)

. After this , multiply the answer with the moles given.

Always write the substance whose amount is asked(glucose) to the right hand side

What information is needed to determine the velocity of an elevator?

cupoosta [38]

Answer:

Velocity is vector quantity. So it needs direction in addoition to speed.

The velocity of an object is the rate of change of its position with respect to a frame of reference, and is a function of time. Velocity is equivalent to a specification of its speed and direction of motion.
