Exactly four.

Wouldn't it actually be six because the glucose molecule is set up as : C6H12O6?

Yes, it's actually 6

How many carbon dioxide molecules are produced for every glucose molecule completely oxidized?

Six CO2 molecules will be produced for every glucose molecule completely oxidized. Glucose contains six Carbon atoms, hence the six CO2 molecules.


When a molecule of glucose is completely oxidized its six carbon atoms are changed into what?

Carbon atoms from a complex organic food molecule, such as glucose, are completely oxidized at the end of its reaction chain. Carbon dioxide is the waste that is released as a result of this reaction.

What is the point which glucose is completely oxidized during cellular respiration?

Glucose is completely oxidized after chemiosmosis because that's when the final products of Glycolysis and The Citric Acid Cycle are used creating the final 36 to 38 ATP molecules. The final products that are used are NADH and FADH2 which are needed in the electron transport chain and ultimatley Chemiosmosis. Hope i answered your question.
