This question is asking to complete and balance the equation as follows:

C6H1206 + 602 → 6CO2 + 6H2O

Explanation:

The equation described in this question is that of cellular respiration, which is the process whereby glucose is broken down to release energy (ATP) needed by the cell.

- The inputs of this equation are glucose (C6H1206) and oxygen (O2).

- The outputs of the equation are carbon dioxide (CO2) and water (H20).

According to this question, to balance the inputs and outputs of cellular respiration, there should be the same number of carbon, oxygen, and hydrogen atoms on each side of the arrow as follows:

C6H1206 + 602 → 6CO2 + 6H2O

Note: the equation is not balanced as it is written in the question.

Cellular respiration is a biochemical process that takes place in cells in which oxygen and food molecules get converted to give chemical energy for cell functioning.

No, the given equation is not balanced:

C₆H₁₂O₆ + O₂ ⇒ CO₂ + H₂O

The equation is not balanced as the atoms of Carbon, hydrogen and oxygen on both sides are different.The atoms of carbon, hydrogen and oxygen are more on the left side of the equation as compared to the right side.First, we will balance the atoms of carbon by adding 6 as a coefficient in front of CO₂ on the right side:

       C₆H₁₂O₆ + O₂ ⇒ 6 CO₂ + H₂O

Then the oxygen can be balanced by adding 6 as a coefficient in front of O₂ on the left side:

       C₆H₁₂O₆ + 6 O₂ ⇒ 6 CO₂ + H₂O

Now finally hydrogen can be balanced by adding 6 as a coefficient in front of H₂O on the right side of the equation:

       C₆H₁₂O₆ + 6 O₂ ⇒ 6 CO₂ + 6 H₂O

Therefore, the correct balanced equation is:

C₆H₁₂O₆ + 6 O₂ ⇒ 6 CO₂ + 6 H₂O

No, the equation is not balanced

Explanation:

The complete question is

Challenge: To balance the inputs and outputs of cellular respiration, there should be the same number of carbon, oxygen, and hydrogen atoms on each side of the arrow.

C6H12O6 + O2 ⇒ CO2 + H2O

A. Is the formula balanced as written? Why or why not?

Solution -

No, the equation is not balanced. The balanced chemical reaction of cellular respiration process is C6H12O6 + 6O2 ⇒ 6CO2 + 6H2O

The number of atoms  of each element must be same on both the sides of the equation.

In the equation - C6H12O6 + O2 ⇒ CO2 + H2O, there are 6 carbon on left side of equation while only one carbon on the right side of equation. Like wise there are 12 hydrogen atom on LHS and 2 hydrogen atom on RHS. Oxygen number is also unbalanced.

True

Explanation:

According to the law of conservation of mass, mass can not be created nor destroyed.

The implication of this is that the total mass on both sides of the reaction equation must be the same.

Thus, the number of atoms of each element on both sides of the reaction arrow must be the same.

Leslie argues that an organism called a Euglena is a plant because it is eukaryotic, has a nucleus, makes its own food, and is unicellular. Where is Leslie's error? Plants do not make their own food..
