Question

PROCEDURE: OH Structural formula for glucose 1. Write the chemical formula for glucose: 2. You will now build a model of glucose. First you must determine the minimum number of molecules of CO: and H:O that you will need to build it. CO: andHO Check with your TA and if correct you will receive a kit to build the glucose molecule. 3. Now that you have built the molecule, what atoms are left over? 12 o1 the likely molecule that will form ?-0 - What is 4. Congratulations! You have just modeled the chemical reaction of photosynthesis. By recalling the steps you just did, write the reaction below. Photosynthesis Reaction: 5. Once a plant has built a glucose molecule, it can begin to build larger molecules through the process of dehydration synthesis. Now determine and then write the chemical reaction that results from the reaction of two glucose molecules to form one maltose and one water molecule. If you are having trouble with this, combine your molecule of glucose with that from another table and create the products of 1 maltose and I water molecule. Dehydration synthesis of maltose:

Explanation / Answer

The chemical formula for Glucose is C6 H12 O6

The minimum number of CO2 and H20 for the synthesis of Glucose is 6 CO2 and 6 H20

12 Oxygen atoms will left over and that will form the 6O2 molecules.

Photosynthesis

6 CO2 + 6 H20 gives C6 H12 O6 + 6O2

Formation of Disaccharides Maltose (Condenssation)

C6 H12 O6 + C6 H12 O6 gives C12 H22 O11 + H20

Hydrolysis of Maltose to form glucose

C12 H22 O11 + H20 gives C6 H12 O6 + C6 H12 O6

Oxydation of glucose

C12 H22 O11 + 6O2 gives 6 CO2 + 6 H20 + 38 ATP

Hydrolysis of Sucrose to Glucose and Fructose

C6 H12 O6 + C6 H12 O6 gives C12 H22 O11 + H20
