Atomic Structure
The basic structure of an atom is defined as the component-level of atomic structure of an atom. Precisely speaking an atom consists of three major subatomic particles which are protons, neutrons, and electrons. Many theories have been stated for explaining the structure of an atom.
Shape of the D Orbital
Shapes of orbitals are an approximate representation of boundaries in space for finding electrons occupied in that respective orbital. D orbitals are known to have a clover leaf shape or dumbbell inside where electrons can be found.
![**Photosynthesis Equation**
Using the equation for photosynthesis below, answer the following questions:
\[ \text{2800 kJ} + 6 \, \text{CO}_2 \, (g) + 6 \, \text{H}_2\text{O} \, (l) \rightarrow \text{C}_6\text{H}_{12}\text{O}_6 \, (s) + 6 \, \text{O}_2 \, (g) \]
**Explanation of the Equation:**
- **2800 kJ**: Represents the energy required for the reaction, usually derived from sunlight.
- **\( \text{6 CO}_2 (g) \)**: Six molecules of carbon dioxide in the gaseous state.
- **\( \text{6 H}_2\text{O} (l) \)**: Six molecules of water in the liquid state.
- **\( \text{C}_6\text{H}_{12}\text{O}_6 (s) \)**: One molecule of glucose, a solid sugar produced.
- **\( \text{6 O}_2 (g) \)**: Six molecules of oxygen gas released as a byproduct.
This represents the process by which plants, algae, and some bacteria convert light energy into chemical energy in the form of glucose.](/v2/_next/image?url=https%3A%2F%2Fcontent.bartleby.com%2Fqna-images%2Fquestion%2Fc9dab0f3-a260-479e-949a-3a4bbd3d0da1%2Ff66d2465-39c7-4fd6-9759-f9a755567c12%2Fnkdj0kg_processed.jpeg&w=3840&q=75)
6 moles of CO2(g) reacts with 6 moles of H2O(l) using 2800 kJ of energy to produce 1 mole of C6H12O6 (s) and 6 moles of O2 (g).
The given chemical equation is in balanced form.
Molar mass of C6H12O6 (s) is:
Mass of 6 carbons = 6 carbons x 12 grams = 72 grams
Mass of 12 Hydrogens = 12 Hydrogens x 1 gram = 12 grams
Mass of 6 Oxygens = 6 Oxygens x 16 grams = 96 grams
Therefore molar mass of C6H12O6 (s) = 72 grams + 12 grams + 96 grams = 180 grams
Therefore, to produce 180 grams of C6H12O6 (s) 28000 kJ of energy is required.
