Answer is "sucrose".

Polymer is a large molecule which is made from repeating units. The smallest repeating unit is called as monomer. <span>Polystyrene, nylon and PVC are examples for polymers. But sucrose is a disaccharide which is made from glucose and fructose. Hence, sucrose is not an example of polymer. </span>

What is the difference between “mass number” and “atomic mass”? which is found on the periodic table?
Greeley [361]

<span>Mass number is the number of protons and neutrons in an atom, and it tells us about the mass of the atom in amu, or atomic mass units. Atomic mass is the average mass of all the isotopes of a certain type.</span>

<span>Mass number found on the periodic table</span>

a piece of candy is burned in a calorimeter raising up the tempature of 500g of water from 21 C to 25 C water has a specific hea
OverLord2011 [107]
   The energy  that was  released   by the candy  is calculates using the below formula
Q=Mc delta T

Q= heat energy
m= mass (500g)
C= specific heat  capacity) = 4.18 j/g/c
 delta t =change in temperature = 25- 21 = 4 c

Q=  500 g  x 4.18 j/g/c x 4c = 8360  j

In two or more complete sentences, explain the difference between heat and temperature.
mina [271]

Answer:

Heat is the total energy of molecular motion in a substance while temperature is a measure of the average energy of molecular motion in a substance. Heat energy depends on the speed of the particles, the number of particles (the size or mass), and the type of particles in an object. Temperature does not depend on the size or type of object. For example, the temperature of a small cup of water might be the same as the temperature of a large tub of water, but the tub of water has more heat because it has more water and thus more total thermal energy. It is heat that will increase or decrease the temperature. If we add heat, the temperature will become higher. If we remove heat the temperature will become lower. Higher temperatures mean that the molecules are moving, vibrating and rotating with more energy. If we take two objects which have the same temperature and bring them into contact, there will be no overall transfer of energy between them because the average energies of the particles in each object are the same. But if the temperature of one object is higher than that of the other object, there will be a transfer of energy from the hotter to the colder object until both objects reach the same temperature.

Temperature is not energy, but a measure of it. Heat is energy.

If 185 mg of acetaminophen were obtained from a tablet containing 350 mg of acetamino- phen, what would be the weight percentage
Alex73 [517]

Percentage recovery gives us an idea of the amount of pure substance recovered after the chemical reaction. Percentage recovery can be more than 100 % or less than 100 %. Usually, in any experiment performed the weight percentage recovery will be less than 100. Percent recovery values greater than 100 show that the recovered compound is contaminated.

Amount of acetaminophen initially taken = 350 mg

Amount of acetaminophen obtained after recovery =185 mg

Weight percentage recovery =\frac{mass recovered}{mass originally taken}*100

                                                = \frac{185 mg}{350 mg}*100

                                               = 52.9%
