Type the correct answer in each box.

The chemical formula for glucose is [tex]C_6H_{12}O_6[/tex]. Therefore, four molecules of glucose will have:

[tex]$\square$[/tex] oxygen atoms

[tex]$\square$[/tex] carbon atoms

[tex]$\square$[/tex] hydrogen atoms



Answer :

To determine the number of atoms for each element in four molecules of glucose with the chemical formula [tex]\( C_6H_{12}O_6 \)[/tex]:

1. Calculate the total number of oxygen atoms:
- Each molecule of glucose has 6 oxygen atoms.
- Thus, four molecules will have [tex]\( 4 \times 6 = 24 \)[/tex] oxygen atoms.

2. Calculate the total number of carbon atoms:
- Each molecule of glucose has 6 carbon atoms.
- Thus, four molecules will have [tex]\( 4 \times 6 = 24 \)[/tex] carbon atoms.

3. Calculate the total number of hydrogen atoms:
- Each molecule of glucose has 12 hydrogen atoms.
- Thus, four molecules will have [tex]\( 4 \times 12 = 48 \)[/tex] hydrogen atoms.

Therefore, four molecules of glucose will have:

- [tex]\( 24 \)[/tex] oxygen atoms
- [tex]\( 24 \)[/tex] carbon atoms
- [tex]\( 48 \)[/tex] hydrogen atoms
