Which statements are correct relative to carbohydrates?

Chemistry
1 answer:
inna [77]3 years ago
8 0

Answer:

Hi, the statements given in the question (a and b) are combination of right and wrong answers. But i will split the statement a and b into necessary fragments.

Carbohydrates are quick source of energy relatively. That is the only correct statement in the question.

Explanation:

Carbohydrates are naturally occurring organic compounds containing carbon, hydrogen and oxygen with the general formula (Cx H2y Oy) or Cx (H2O)y. They can be classified into simple sugar or complex sugar.

Simple sugars can be further divided into Monosaccharides (e.g glucose, fructose and galactose) and Disaccharides (e.g sucrose and maltose).

Complex sugar can be referred to as Polysaccharides (e.g cellulose and starch)

The statement above that says carbohydrate contains carbon,  hydrogen and nitrogen polymers is not correct.

Carbohydrates are not mostly monosaccharides. They also contain Disaccharides and Polysaccharides.

They are not the only source of fuel.

Alisiya [41]

Answer:Hence, the bond length in HCl is 125 pm.

Explanation:

Bond length : It is an average distance between the nuclei of two bonded atoms in a molecule.

Also given that bond length is the distance between the centers of two bonded atoms. on the potential energy curve, the bond length is the inter-nuclear distance between the two atoms when the potential energy of the system reaches its lowest value. Beyond this if atoms come closer to each other then their will be repulsion between them.

So, the bond length between the Hydrogen and Chlorine atom in HCl molecule is :

Bond length=radius _{hydrogen}+radius_{chlorine}=25pm+100pm=125pm

Hence, the bond length in HCl is 125 pm.

Electromagnetic waves heat earths surface through convection?
larisa86 [58]
Heat moves in three ways:Radiation, conduction, and convection. Radiation happens when heat moves as energy waves, call infrared waves,directly from its source to something else.This is how the heat from the Sun gets to Earth.In fact,all hot things radiate heat to cooler things:).hope this helps
