Question

What does 6H 22 O represent in the chemical equation for cellular respiration?(1 point)ResponsesTwelve molecules of waterTwelve molecules of waterSix atoms of hydrogenSix atoms of hydrogenTwelve atoms of oxygenTwelve atoms of oxygenSix molecules of water

Answer 1

In the chemical formula \( C_6H_{12}O_6 + 6O_2 \rightarrow 6CO_2 + 6H_2O \) for cellular respiration, the \( 6H_2O \) specifically represents **six molecules of water**.

So, the correct response is: **Six molecules of water.**
