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.

ololo11 [35]
I believe the answer is carbon dioxide. Because when carbon dioxide and water combine in the atmosphere it forms a very weak acid called carbonic acid, which falls to the Earth's surface as precipitation.

Which of the following is not true of chloramines? Select one:
Marina86 [1]

Answer:

c. form trihalomethanes with organic compounds

Explanation:

Chloramines are compounds which are the derivatives of organic amine and ammonia. The N-H bonds in these compounds have been replaced by the N-Cl bonds. There are mainly two types of chloramines and they are inorganic chloramines and organic chloramines. Generally, chloramines contain chlorine, can be used to sanitize and disinfect, are safer than free chlorine, and can also be used to treat wounds and skin surfaces. Therefore, the correct option is (c) because chloramines do not form trihalomethanes with organic compounds.
