When glycogen is broken down into sugar what type of reaction occurs?

Chemistry
1 answer:
grin007 [14]3 years ago
7 0

The answer is hydrolysis. Glycogen is a polymer of glucose linked together by α(1→4) glycosidic bonds and α(1→<span>6)-linked branches. During hydrolysis, a water molecule is consumed for every bond that is hydrolyzed. Attached diagram is a clear description of this process. In biology, the degradation of glycogen to glucose is referred to as  glycogenolysis. </span>

An automobile tire at 30°C has a pressure of 3.00 atm. Temperature decreases to -5°C. Assume that there is no volume change in t
dmitriy555 [2]

Answer:

P₂ = 2.7 atm

Explanation:

Given data:

Initial temperature = 30°C

Initial pressure = 3.00 atm

Final temperature = -5°C

Final pressure = ?

Solution:

Initial temperature = 30°C = 30 + 273 = 303 K

Final temperature = -5°C = -5 + 273 = 268 K

According to Gay-Lussac Law,

The pressure of given amount of a gas is directly proportional to its temperature at constant volume and number of moles.

Mathematical relationship:

P₁/T₁ = P₂/T₂

Now we will put the values in formula:

3.0 atm / 303 K = P₂/268 K

P₂ = 3.0 atm × 268 K / 303 K

P₂ = 804 atm. K /293 K

P₂ = 2.7 atm

N analyst prepared a sucrose solution by weighing 1kg of water and add 1.5kg sucrose.estimate the concentration of the resultant
makvit [3.9K]

The concentration of the solution in mass percent is 60%.

<h3>What is the mass percent?</h3>

The concentration of a substance can be expressed in mass percent. This refers to the percentage of the solute that is contained in the solution.

Thus we can write;

Mass percent = Mass of solute/ Mass of solution * 100/1

Mass percent = 1.5kg/1.5kg + 1 Kg * 100/1

Mass percent =  60%

Hence, the concentration of the solution in mass percent is 60%.

Write a balanced chemical equation, including physical state symbols, for the combustion of gaseous butane into gaseous carbon d
Phantasy [73]

Answer:1.

1.Balanced equation

C4H10 + 9 02 ==> 5H20 +4CO2

2. Volume of CO2 =596L

Explanation:

1.Combustion of alkane is the reaction of alkanes with Oxygen. And the general equation for the combustion is;

CxHy +( x+y/4) O2 ==> y/2 02 + xCO2

Where x and y are number of carbon and hydrogen atoms respectively.

For butane (C4H10)

x=4 and y=10

Therefore

C4H10 + 9 02 ==> 5H20 +4CO2

2. Mass of butane = 0.360kg

Molar mass of C4H10 = ( 12×4 + 1×10)

= 48 +10=58g/mol= 0.058kg/mol

Mole = mass/molar mass

Mole = 0.360/0.058= 6.2moles

From the stoichiometric equation

1mole of C4H10 will gives 4moles of CO2

Therefore

6.2moles of C4H10 will gives 4 moles of 24.8 moles of CO2

Using the ideal gas equation

PV=nRT

P= 1.0atm

V=?

n= 24.8mol.

R=0.08206atmL/molK

T=20+273=293

V= 24.8 × 0.08206 × 293

V= 596L

Therefore the volume of CO2 produced is 596L
