1. Understand the Formula:
* The formula C6H12O6 tells us that each molecule of glucose contains 6 carbon atoms.
2. Use the Mole Ratio:
* The mole ratio between glucose and carbon is 1:6. This means for every 1 mole of glucose, there are 6 moles of carbon.
3. Calculate the Moles of Carbon:
* Multiply the moles of glucose by the mole ratio:
1.22 moles C6H12O6 * (6 moles C / 1 mole C6H12O6) = 7.32 moles C
Therefore, there are 7.32 moles of carbon in 1.22 moles of glucose.
