Saccharides are carbohydrates, molecules containing Carbon (C), Hydrogen (H), and Oxygen (O). "Saccharo" means sugar in Greek. Also Greek, "mono" means one, "di" means two, and "poly" means many.
A sugar molecule is based upon a ring of carbons with H's and OH's attached. One sugar molecule alone is a monosacchararide, like glucose and fructose. Two sugar molecules bonded together covalently is a disaccharide, like lactose (milk sugar) and sucrose (table sugar). Many sugar molecules (upwards of hundreds or thousands) bonded together covalently is a polysaccharide. Examples are glycogen (animal starch) and cellulose (plant starch).

What are units used for specific gravity? its 20 points ;)
Amanda [17]

Answer:

Explanation: Specific gravity is a dimensionless quantity; that is, it is not expressed in units. To find the sp gr of a solid or liquid, you must know its density in kilograms per meter cubed (kg/m3) or in grams per centimeter cubed (g/cm3). Then, divide this density by the density of pure water in the same units.

200.0 mL of water is added to 300.0 mL of 3.78 M LiClO3, what is the concentration of the resulting solution?
Kamila [148]
Molarity = number of moles/Volume (L). Solve for the number of moles in the initial solution (3.78M = n/0.3 L) and then use that amount of moles and the new volume (0.5 L) to solve for the new Molarity.

Describe the reaction of a weak acid and a strong base. What would the pH of the solution be? I will mark brainliest, thanks :)
Gekata [30.6K]
Because the base is strong, and the acid is weak, the final solution will have a pH greater than seven. This is because the base disassociates more than the acid does. There are more OH- ions than H+ ions.
