Best Answer

YES!!!

However, it is NOT an hydrocarbon, because it contains oxygen.

NB When writing chemical formula ; -

#1 ; One letter elemental symbols are ALWAYS a CAPITAL letter . Hence carbons is 'C' not 'c'. etc.,

#2 ; A two letter elemental symbol is written as , first letter is a capital letter and the second letter is small/lower case. e.g. Na ( Sodium).

What is another word for a reactant product of respiration?

Well as respiration is an energy producing process in which : Glucose ( C6 H12 O6 ) Reacts with Oxygen ( O2 ) to Produce Energy and Carbon Dioxide ( CO2 ) and Water ( H2O ) the equation (unbalanced) is : ( C6 H12 O6 ) + ( O2 ) -------------> ( CO2 ) + ( H2O ) + <energy>


Formula for cell resperation?

This is the basic exact opposite of the equation for photosynthesis which is Photosynthesis---->6C O2 + 6H2 O + Sunlight = C6 H12 O6 + 6o2 Respiration-----> C6 H12 O6 + 6O2 = 6H2 O + 6C O2 + Energy


What is respiration and what is its formula?

Respiration means breathing. You're probably doing it now;-) Respiration also has another meaning, though the two functions are connected closely. Breathing (respiration) is a physical exchange of gases (oxygen and carbon dioxide). The formula, however, is: glucose + oxygen = carbon dioxide + water + energy. Hope i helped! :)

How are chemical processes of photosynthesis similar to the chemical processes of cellular respiration?

Photosynthesis 6 (H2 O) + 6 (C O2) -> C6 H12 O6+ 6(O2) Respiration C6 H12 O6+ 8(O2) -> 6 (H2 O2) + 6 (C O2) All the reactants and products are made of hydrogen, carbon, and oxygen, (generally the respiration process is shown producing water instead of hydrogen peroxide, because the hydrogen peroxide breaks up into oxygen and water with the help of enzymes.)


What is the overall reaction for photosynthesis?
