The formula for citric acid, found in lemon juice, is CH2COOH

Question

. For each symbol, identify the element and the number of atoms present by dragging the tiles into the appropriate columns of the table.

Answer 1

Certainly! The formula for citric acid (C6H8O7) includes three different types of elements: carbon (C), hydrogen (H), and oxygen (O). Here’s how you can organize the elements and their respective number of atoms:

| Element | Number of Atoms | |---------|-----------------| | Carbon (C) | 6 | | Hydrogen (H) | 8 | | Oxygen (O) | 7 |

If CH2COOH was meant to refer to a simplified version of citric acid, it's actually not correct, as the correct formula should be C6H8O7. If you meant a different compound or needed a breakdown of the formula you provided, please clarify!
