What do the letters and numbers in a chemical formula represent? The chemical formula for table sugar is C₁₂H₂₂O₁₁. Describe this molecule using what you've learned about chemical formulas so far.

i'm pretty sure its b i might be wrong though!

im not exactly sure but i think its b!

the answer would be b i believe

answer:

the answer is 6 valence electrons.

explanation:

valence is the # of electrons on the outer most shell of an atom.

oxygen has 6.

although, the valency of oxygen is 2, because it only needs to make 2 covalent bonds, or gain 2 electrons, to achieve the stable octet configuration of a noble gas.

that's it!

if you need further assistance, let me know: )
