Answer:
6.49g
Explanation:
Let's consider the balanced reaction for photosynthesis.
6 CO₂ + 6 H₂O = C₆H₁₂O₆ + 6 O₂
We can establish the following relations:
- 1 mole of CO₂ has a mass of 44.01 g (MW 44.01)
- The molar ratio of CO₂ to C₆H₁₂O₆ is 6:1.
- 1 mole of C₆H₁₂O₆ has a mass of 180.16 g/mol.
The mass of glucose produced by the reaction of 9.51 g of carbon dioxide is:
