Sucrose, a disaccharide (consisting of two monosaccharides), is table sugar.

A digestive enzyme called sucrase catalyses the breakdown of sucrose into its component sugars, fructose and glucose. One type, sucrase-isomaltase, is secreted at the brush boundary of the small intestine. Invertase, a form of the sucrase enzyme that is more frequently found in plants, also hydrolyzes sucrose but does it in a different way.

<h3>What does sucrase break down into ?</h3>

Maltose is converted to glucose by maltase. Succrase and lactase, respectively, break down other disaccharides like sucrose and lactose. Sucrase and lactase are enzymes that break down sucrose (also known as "table sugar") and lactose (sometimes known as "milk sugar"), respectively, into glucose and fructose.

  • Both the breakdown of maltose into glucose and the breakdown of sucrose into glucose and fructose are carried out by the enzyme's sucrase subunit.

Explain why a fluorescent light bulb is not as hot as an incandescent light bulb.
Jet001 [13]

An incandescent bulb becomes hotter than a fluorescent bulb when turned on because in a regular incandescent bulb, there is tungsten wire where electricity is converts into heat. A regular incandescent light bulb requires 4 times more energy than a fluorescent bulb in order to produce the same amount of light. The conversion is such that for a 75-watt bulb, temperature get raised to approximately 2000 K. For such a high temperature, the radiating energy from the wire have some visible light. In such bulbs, 90% of the electricity get consumed in producing heat and only 10% produces light thus, they are not much efficient source of light.

On the other hand, fluorescent bulbs produce light with less amount of heat. In them, 40% of electricity is consumed in producing light and 60% in heat which is very less as compared to heat produced by a incandescent bulb. This is because when it get turned on, mercury atoms inside the bulb collides with electrons and produce UV light  which is then converted into visible light using thin layer of phosphor power present inside the bulb. This produces low amount of heat thus, the bulb stays cooler, the bigger size of bulb also helps in dispersing heat.

Therefore, a fluorescent light bulb is not as hot as an incandescent light bulb.

A given sample of a gas has a volume of 3 liters at a
ycow [4]

Answer:

B) 12

Explanation:

Given parameters:

Initial volume  = 3L

Initial pressure  = 4atm

Final pressure  = 6atm

Unknown:

Final volume  = ?

Solution:

To solve this problem, we apply Boyle's law which states that "the volume of a fixed mass of a gas varies inversely as the pressure changes if the temperature is constant".

   P₁V₁  = P₂V₂

 P and V are pressure and temperature values

 1 and 2 are initial and final states.

    PV product  = 3 x 4 = 12
