Glucose is a simple sugar with the molecular formula C6H12O6. Glucose circulates in the blood of animals as blood sugar. It is made during photosynthesis from water and carbon dioxide, using energy from sunlight. It is the most important source of energy for cellular respiration. Glucose is stored as a polymer, in plants as starch and in animals as glycogen. With 6 carbon atoms, it is classed as a hexose, a subcategory of the monosaccharides. D-Glucose is one of the 16 aldohexose stereoisomers. The D-isomer, D-glucose, also known as dextrose, occurs widely in nature, but the L-isomer, L-glucose, does not.
How many protons does a glucose molecule have? The chemical formula for glucose is C6H12O6 There are 6 protons in carbon, one proton in hydrogen, and 8 protons in oxygen. There are 6 atoms of carbon (6Ã6), 12 atoms ofâ¦ hydrogen (12Ã1), and 6 atoms of oxygen (8Ã6). So multiplying those out and adding them together, there are 96 protons in one molecule of glucose. 6 people found this useful.
