Which symbol equation correctly describes the reaction: Wood (mostly glucose) burns in the presence of oxygen to form water and carbon dioxide?

A. C6H12O6+O2→H2O+CO2
B. O2→H2O+CO2+C6H12O6
C. C6H12O6→O2+H2O+CO2
D. O2+H2O→CO2+C6H12O6

the enthalpy of formation of water is given as -285.8kj/mol, which states that the enthalpy of formation is negative.

negative enthalpy of formation indicates that the heat is released during the reaction process. the heat is released from reaction to the surroundings the enthalpy is expressed with a negative sign with the energy given out in the reaction process.

the formation of water takes place by giving out heat which is -285.8 kj/mol.

hurricanes form when warm, moist air from the ocean surface quickly rises into the atmosphere and forms storm clouds and rain. when the clouds are formed, heat is released which warms the cool air in the upper regions of the atmosphere so that the cycle can continue. which two phases of the water cycle are repeated in this process?
