Question

1. which formula has the greatest total number of atoms? c₂h₅oh ch₃cooh c₆h₁₂o₆ nh₄oh

Explanation:

Step1: Count atoms in $C_2H_5OH$

$2$ carbon + $6$ hydrogen+ $1$ oxygen = $9$ atoms

Step2: Count atoms in $CH_3COOH$

$2$ carbon + $4$ hydrogen+ $2$ oxygen = $8$ atoms

Step3: Count atoms in $C_6H_{12}O_6$

$6$ carbon + $12$ hydrogen+ $6$ oxygen = $24$ atoms

Step4: Count atoms in $NH_4OH$

$1$ nitrogen + $5$ hydrogen+ $1$ oxygen = $7$ atoms

Answer:

$C_6H_{12}O_6$
