∙ 15y agoSulfuric Acid doesn't actually react with sugar. It dehyrates the sugar molecules; i.e. it removes the Hydrogen and Oxygen atoms which then bond to form Water H2O molecules (in the form of steam, since a lot of heat is released too). Carbon is left behind. For Sucrose sugar, the equation is C12H22O11 ---> 11H2O + 12C

∙ 10y agoWell, you need another reactant for sulfuric acid to react with. Sulfuric acid by itself will just sit there. Now, add a metal, like magnesium, and that will give you a reaction. Acids react with most metals to produce a salt and hydrogen gas. Magnesium and sulfuric acid react according to this equation:
H2SO4 + Mg --> MgSO4 + H2
As you can see, the products are magnesium sulfate (commonly known as Epsom salt) and hydrogen gas.

What happens to sugar in water when the water is heated?
The sugar The sugar turns into its constituents. Sugar is made up of carbon and water. So when the sugar is heated, it turns into carbon and oxygen.The equation can be:-Sugar==>Carbon+Water
What is the chemical equation for the compound sugar water?
SugarGlucose is a sugar monosaccharide (monomer): C6H12O6Table sugar (sucrose) is C12H22O11There are lots of sugars (monosaccharides, disaccharides, polysaccarhides). Glucose is one of the most important carbohydrates because it is used in cell respiration. All carbohydrates including sucrose are hydrolyzed in digestion - broken down to glucose. The splitting and transformation of glucose is what powers ATP production, which in turn supports cell activities.
What is the chemical equation when sugar is burned?
Heating sugar is a thermal decomposition reaction; a chemical equation is not suitable. The resulting substances are water, carbon dioxide and caramel (a complex material). Continuing the heating of caramel lead also to water and carbon dioxide.
What is 2C12H22O11?
It is a carbohydrate... a Disaccharide. Example: sucrose
Write a balanced chemical equation for the fermentation of sucrose by yeasts in which the sugar reacts with water o form aqueous ethyl alcohol and carbon dioxide gas.?
The balanced equation is: C_12 H_22 O_11 (aq)+H_2O(l)------------>4C_2 H_5 OH(aq)+4CO_2(g)
What is the balance equation when decomposing sugar?
When sugar is decomposed, carbon is left. Therefore, the balanced equation would be C12H22O11 -> 12C+11H2O
What is the equation for photosnthesis?
carbon dioxide + water ---> sugar + oxygen
(now the caries equation:?
Sugar + Plaque = Acid + Tooth = Decay
Which reactant in the photosynthesis equation is used directly to make sugar?
CO2
Which equation the releasing of energy from sugar in plants?
The process is called Photosynthesis.
What is the equation for figuring out how many teaspoons of sugar in 25 grams of sugar?
4.2 grams approximately in 1 Teaspoon of sugar. 25/4.2 = 5.95 Teaspoons of sugar in 25 grams.
How is the equation for respiration related to the photosynthesis equation?
They both use the same things but photosynthesis's products are what respiration starts with like respirtion needs oxgyen and glucose or sugar and photosynthesis is what give the oxgyen and glucose (sugar).
How does sugar collect in ripening tomatoes?
Because in the equation for photosynthesis carbon dioxide + water + light = sugar + oxygen so sugar collects in tomatoes through photosynthesis
Word equation photosynthesis?
carbon dioxide + water -> oxygen + glucose (sugar)
What is the Equation for alcoholic fermentation?
The summary equation is the formula equation. Sugar equals alcohol plus carbon dioxide. The formula is C6H12O6 which equals 2 CH3CH2OH plus 2 CO2.
What is the word equation of photosenthesis?
sunlight+water+carbon dioxide=oxygen and glucose (sugar)
What is the equation for table sugar and Nitric acid?
c12h22o11 +hno3 =heat =water +carbon
