Glucose can be converted into ethanol, carbon dioxide and energy (usually in the form of heat).

Using chemical formulas, this can be illustrated as follows:
Glucose = Ethanol + Carbon Dioxide + Energy
C6H12O6 = 2C2H5OH + 2CO2 + Energy

From the periodic table:
molecular mass of carbon = 12 grams
molecular mass of oxygen = 16 grams
molecular mass of hydrogen = 1 gram

Therefore:
molar mass of glucose = 6(12) + 12(1) + 6(16) = 180 grams
molar mass of ethanol = 2(12) + 5(1) + 16 + 1 = 46 grams
molar mass of carbon dioxide = 1(12) + 2(16) = 44 grams

Based on the conversion equation, each one mole of glucose converts into two moles of ethanol and two moles of carbon dioxide.
Therefore, each 180 grams of glucose converts into 46 x 2 = 92 grams of ethanol and 44 x 2 = 88 grams of carbon dioxide in addition to energy.

To calculate the mass of ethanol and carbon dioxide produced from 200 grams of glucose, we will simply use cross multiplication as follows:
mass of ethanol = (200 x 92) / 180 = 102.2 grams
mass of carbon dioxide = (200 x 88) / 180 = 97.7 grams

Total mass of ethanol and carbon dioxide = 102.2 + 97.7 = 199.9 grams

Where would the electrons in the 3d sublevel be found? Possibly in any shell only in the n = 3 energy level in energy levels &gt
postnew [5]

Answer:

In the n = 3 energy level

Explanation:

There's is no further explanation for this.

All the electrons in an energy level are distribuited according to the period in the periodic table they are.

So, if we have an atom in period 1, like Hydrogen (H), that atom would only have 1 level energy (n = 1) and in that level, we only have the sub level 1s.

Electrons in the 3d sublevel, are found mostly in all the transition metals of period 3, and it can go from 1 to 10 electrons. To be with the 3d sub level it's neccesary that the energy level to be 3.

energy levels beyond that, like n = 4, we have electrons occupying the 3d sub level, so, primordly, the 3d is found only in energy level 3.

Hope this helps

How could measuring the melting point of a solid help decide whether it was a mixture or a compound?
mars1129 [50]

Answer: It can't.

Explanation:

In most cases, the melting point alone will not enable you to identify a compound. Millions of solid organic compounds, and their melting points, are known. Perhaps 10,000 of these will have the same melting point as your unknown compound.

Hope this helps!
