If a plant produces 9.31 mol of C6H12O6, how many moles of H2O are needed?
Ans. Ans. Balanced Reaction: 6CO2 + 6H2O ---hv---> C6H12O6 + 6O2
Stoichiometry: Formation of 1 mol glucose (C6H12O6) requires 6 moles H2O.
So,
Total moles of H2O required = 6 x Number of moles of C6H12O6 formed
= 6 x 9.31 mol
= 55.86 mol
