Answer:

The correct option is C.

Explanation:

Carbohydrates are one of the macro molecules that are consumed by living organisms. The end product of carbohydrate is glucose. Glucose is a very important fuel that the body cells used to produce energy, which they use to carry out their daily activities. Glucose is also known as blood sugar and it is the only fuel that living cells can use for the production of ATP. Other food macro molecules such as lipids and proteins can also be converted to glucose if there is a need for that. Glucose is always stored in the body in form of glycogen.

The statement given in option C about glucose is wrong because glucose is a monosaccharide and not a disaccharide.

What volume measured in stp will 3.75 grams of helium gas occupy?
Andre45 [30]
Molar mass  helium gas :

He = 4.0 g/mol

number of moles:  3.75 / 4.0 => 0.9375 moles

1 mole ------ 22.4 ( at STP)
0.9375 ------ ?

volume = 0.9375 x 22.4 / 1

Volume = 21 / 1

Volume = 21 L

hope this helps!

Which atomic model states that it is impossible to know the exact location of electrons around the nucleus?
Alja [10]
<span>The correct answer is electron-cloud model. This model states that electrons don't go around in an eliptical way but rather completely erratically and uncontrolably and this is why it can't be known where they are or how they will behave. They form sort of like a cloud of many electrons that move erratically so you have to check it to see where it is.</span>

An iron chloride compound contains 55.85 grams of iron and 106.5 grams of chlorine. What is the most likely empirical formula fo
mart [117]

Answer:

FeCl_{3}

Explanation:

Moles =\frac {Given\ mass}{Molar\ mass}

mass of Fe = 55.85 g

Molar mass of Fe = 55.85 g/mol

<u>Moles of Fe = 55.85 / 55.85 = 1</u>

mass of Cl = 106.5 g

Molar mass of Cl = 35.5 g/mol

Moles of Cl = 106.5 / 35.5 = 3

Taking the simplest ratio for Fe and Cl as:

1 : 3

The empirical formula is = FeCl_{3}
