The molecular formula of Glucose is____________?
Correct answer: C. C6H12O6
- A. NH3
- B. C12H22O11
- C. C6H12O6
- D. C6H6
Explanation
Glucose is a monosaccharide with the molecular formula C6H12O6, showing six carbon atoms, twelve hydrogen atoms, and six oxygen atoms in each molecule. C12H22O11 is the formula of sucrose, not glucose. Students may confuse the two because both are commonly called sugars.

About Moles and Avogadro's Number
The mole connects the microscopic number of particles with measurable mass, using Avogadro's number, 6.022 × 10²³ particles per mole. Questions involve molar mass, conversion between mass, moles and particles, percentage composition, empirical and molecular formulas, and distinguishing atoms, molecules, ions and formula units.
