The reaction for producing glucose in plants, called photosynthesis, is 6co2+6h2o−→−−lightc6h12o6+6o2 if a plant produces 4.36 mol c6h12o6, how many moles of h2o are needed? moles h2o : the reaction for producing glucose in plants, called photosynthesis, is 6co2+6h2o−→−−lightc6h12o6+6o2 if a plant produces 4.36 mol c6h12o6, how many moles of h2o are needed? moles h2o :

26.16 moles of water

Explanation:

As per balanced equation given:

Six moles carbon dioxide will react with six moles of water to give one mole of glucose

As per problem the moles of glucose produced = 4.36

so the moles of water required is = 6X4.36 =26.16 moles

the same number of moles of carbon dioxide will also be required.

answer : one can design an experiment using a liquid and an additive that can be added to the liquid and observe the chemical changes in the reaction species.

one would need a beaker which is filled with a known amount of the liquid in which thermometer is placed to measure the temperature changes; after addition of the additive to the liquid solution one can note down the temperature change and find whether the reaction is endothermic or exothermic in nature. by subtracting the initial temperature value with the final temperature one can find the temperature changes.

various combinations of liquid and additive can be used. liquid in this case can be a known quantity of water and additives can be epsom salt or without epsom salt the experiment can be conducted to notice the changes. water and ice, hydrogen peroxide and dry yeast, vinegar and baking soda,etc.
