Answer:
C2H2O4
Explanation:
To get the molecular formula, we first get the empirical formula. This can be done by dividing the percentage compositions by the atomic masses. The percentage compositions are shown as follows :
C = 26.86%
H = 2.239%
O = 100 - ( 26.86 + 2.239) = 70.901%
We then proceed to divide by their atomic masses. Atomic mass of carbon is 12 a.m.u , H = 1 a.m.u , O = 16 a.m.u
The division is as follows:
C = 26.86/12 = 2.2383
H = 2.239/1 = 2.239
O = 70.901/16 = 4.4313
We now divide each by the smallest number I.e 2.2383
C = 2.2383/2.2383 = 1
H = 2.239/2.2383 = 1
O = 4.4313/2.2383 = 1.98 = 2
Thus, the empirical formula is CHO2.
To get the molecular formula, we use the molar mass .
(CHO2)n = 90
We add the atomic masses multiplied by n.
(12 + 1 + 2(16))n = 90
45n = 90
n = 90/45 = 2.
Thus , the molecular formula is C2H2O4
Answer:
Glycogen in an important storage polysaccharide found in animal tissues.
Explanation:
Full question:
Glycogen ________
A) forms the regulatory molecules known as enzymes
B) serves as a structural component of human cells
C) helps to protect vital organs from damage
D) is an important storage polysaccharide found in animal tissues
E) contains the genetic information found in cells
Glycogen is a complex polysaccharide of glucose founded in humans, animals, fungi and even bacteria. In humans, the glycogen is made and stored in liver cells. In the center on glycogen molecule, there is a single protein called Glycogenin. It is a center of a big flower made of glucose molecules (please refer to the scheme attached - Glycogenin is red and the blue lines are glucose chains). Glycogen is also stored in skeletal muscle, red and white blood cells, in glial brain cells and kidneys but in a smaller amounts. It can be found in the placenta in pregnant women where it serves as a nutrient storage for embryo. In an adult, the liver weighs 1,5 kg and glycogen weighs about 120g in such a liver. After a meal, the level of sugar is rising and the insulin is being secreted. Insulin is a tool by which sugar is being delivered to the cells, like a food delivery. During this period, glycogen is being synthesized in the liver out of glucose residues. When the meal is digested, the sugar level is back to normal. When more energy is needed, glycogen from the liver is broken down by glycogen phosphorylase and the new sugar is released into the bloodstream.

Answer:
The answer is
<h2>2 cm/year</h2>
Explanation:
To find the rate in cm/year we must first convert 200 m into cm
1 m = 100 cm
if 1 m = 100 cm
Then 200 m = 200 × 100 = 20 ,000 cm
So the rate is
<h2>

</h2>
<u>Reduce the fraction with 10,000</u>
We have the final answer as
<h3>2 cm/year</h3>
Hope this helps you
Answer:
We identify nucleic acid strand orientation on the basis of important chemical functional groups. These are the <u>phosphate</u> group attached to the 5' carbon atom of the sugar portion of a nucleotide and the <u>hydroxyl</u> group attached to the <u>3'</u> carbon atom
Explanation:
Nucleic acids are polymers formed by a phosphate group, a sugar (ribose in RNA and deoxyribose in DNA) and a nitrogenous base. In the chain, the phosphate groups are linked to the 5'-carbon and 3'-carbon of the ribose (or deoxyribose) and the nitrogenous base is linked to the 2-carbon. Based on this structure, the nucleic acid chain orientation is identified as the 5'-end (the free phosphate group linked to 5'-carbon of the sugar) and the 3'-end (the free hydroxyl group in the sugar in 3' position).
