What is the molecular mass of glucose whose molecular formula is c6h12o6?

Well first you should determine the molecular mass of your glucose molecule, then you should divide the molecular mass of all the carbon by this, if I recall correctly.
Should look something like
(12X6) / ((6X12)+(12X1)+(6X16))
All multiplied by 100 to make it a percentage.
Gives something like 40% which sounds like the right answer looking at the question.

∙ 9y agoThe mass percentage of carbon can be found easily using the molar mass of C6H12O6, 180.1559 g/mol. Use the individual molar mass of each type of atom present, and multiply it by the number of the atom present in the molecule. Divide the mass of one element in the glucose molecule by the molar mass of the entire molecule and multiply by 100 to find the mass percent.

What is the molecular mass of 1 mole of a compound whose formula is c3h7o2?
The same as the molecular weight of the compound.
What are the balanced chemical equations for lactic acid fermentation?
An organic acid with the chemical formula CH3CH (OH). COOH. Lactic acid is a product of anaerobic glycolysisLactic acid system An anaerobic energy system in which ATP is manufactured from the breakdown of glucose to pyruvic acid. The acid is then converted to lactic acid. High-intensity activities lasting up to about two or three min use this energy system during which the reduction of nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide (NAD) is coupled with a net production of two ATP molecules for each glucose molecule metabolized.
What glucose?
== Answer 1==It is a carbohydrate(*)/sugar. It is in both plants as a result of photosynthesis and in the human body as well. Glucose is a sugar found in the bloodstream and is the body's main source of energy. Pure glucose is a solid, and will therefore not evaporate(**). If it is in a solution (glucose dissolved in water for instance), then the water can evaporate, but not the glucose itself. (***)Glucose a monosaccharide (simple sugar) with formula C6H12O6 or H-(C=O)-(CHOH)5-H, whose five hydroxyl (OH) groups are arranged in a specific way along its six-carbon backbone.Further related definitions:Sucrose is an organic compound commonly known as table sugar, sometimes called saccharose. At room temperature it is a white, odorless, crystalline powder. The sucrose molecule is a disaccharide composed of the monosaccharides glucose and fructose, and has a molecular formula C12H22O11.(*) A carbohydrate is any of a large group of organic compounds occurring in foods and living tissues and including sugars, starch, and cellulose. They contain hydrogen and oxygen in the same ratio as water (2:1) and typically can be broken down to release energy in the animal body.(**) Some solids can evaporate; the process of a material going directly from the solid phase to the vapor phase (and not going through a liquid phase) is called sublimation. Frozen carbon dioxide (dry ice) undergoes sublimation; under normal temperatures and pressures, it never enters a liquid form.(***) the author is saying that glucose is not volatile, ie won't boil away or evaporate off like water.

Is a bonding orbital a molecular orbital whose energy is higher than that of the atomic orbitals from which it is formed?
no, it's a molecular orbit that can be occupied by two electrons of a covalent bond(:
Whose molecular formula is C6H22O6?
The molecular formula C12 H22 O11 is for DISCCHARIDES (sugars) -three different sugars - with different molecular structures, BUT ONLY ONE: molecular formula : 1. Lactose 2. Sucrose 3. Maltose The three sugars all have the same formula , but the structure represents the combination of two sugars - that is they are Discaccharide Type Sugars (dis,as two). to identify the formula -to a particular sugar we must know how it is structured as : LACTOSE= GLUCOSE + GALACTOSE FRUCTOSE = GLUCOSE + FRUCTOSE MALTOSE = GLUCOSE + GLUCOSE Sugar is Sugar by formula but not by structure.
What compounds are carbohydrate made of?
Carbon, Hydrogen, Oxygen. Take C6H12O6, the formula for hexoses, or simple carbohydrates like Glucose.
What is the difference between empirical and molecular formula?
An empirical formula is one that shows the lowest whole number ratio of the elements present. The molecular formula shows the composition of the molecules. An example is phosphorus pentoxide, P2O5 empirical formula, P4O10 molecular formula.
What is the molecular formula of a compound whose empirical formula is CH3 and whose molar mass is 30 g?
C2h6
What is the molecular formula of the saturated hydrocarbon whose 1 molecule contains 8 hydrogens?
The chemical formula of octane is C8H18.
What is the molecular mass of 1 mole of a compound whose formula is c3h7o2?
The same as the molecular weight of the compound.
What is the empirical formula for a compound whose molecular formula is C2Cl6?

Is a monosaccharide a 6 carbon sugar?
Another name for a six-carbon sugar is a hexose. A monosaccharide ("single sugar") is a chemical compound whose molecules can be found in chains in other compounds. An example is glucose. One molecule of glucose is a six-carbon compound. But when two glucose molecules combine, the product is a disaccharide ("two-sugar compound"), namely maltose. The common sugar used in cooking is sucrose, another disaccharide, consisting of one glucose and one fructose residue (component). Yet another hexose, galactose, combines with glucose to form the disaccharide lactose.
How chloride is estimated in aluminon?
Aluminon is a dye whose molecular formula is C22H23N3O9 and from this it should be clear that it contains no chloride.
Where does the term carbohydrate come from?
Carbohydrates are made of carbon, hydrogen, and oxygen, all in a constant 1:2:1 ratio. Hence the name Carbo (carbon) hydra (hydrogen) and the ending 'ate' refers to oxygen.
