Which of the following statements about maltose are correct?

Biology

Answer: The three statements are correct.

Explanation: Maltose is a disaccharide consisting of two D-glucose (monosaccharide) units joined covalently by an O-glycosidic bond between carbon 1 (C-1) of one glucose unit and carbon 4 (C-4) of another glucose unit. O-glycosidic bond is formed when a hydroxyl group of one sugar reacts with the anorexic carbon of another sugar molecule.

Maltose dissolves in water, therefore it is soluble in water.

Maltose is a reducing disaccharide because the anomeric carbon atom (C-1) of the second glucose residue can be oxidized to a carboxyl group. Thus maltose is reducing sugar because it is capable of reducing ferric or cupric ion. Reducing sugars reduce cupric Cu2+ or ferric ions Fe3+ and have their carbonyl carbon oxidized to a carboxyl group.

Answer:

All the three statements about maltose are correct.

Explanation:

1) Maltose is formed from the combination of two same type of monosaccharide i. e. two glucose molecules.

2) Maltose is soluble in water. Its solubility value is 1.080 g/mL.

3) Maltose is a reducing sugar because it act as a reducing agent due to the presence of aldehyde group with glucose molecules.

3. What can you say about the general relationship of the charge of the anion to the subscript of the cation?
Genrish500 [490]

Answer:

Cations are positively charged ion while anions are negatively charged ions formed by loosing and gaining of electrons respectively. Transition metals are metals in the middle of the periodic table with multiple oxidation states. The charge on the transition metal is equal to the oxidation state which varies from +1 to +7. The charge of transition metal can also be determined in neutral compound as long as one knows the charge or the oxidation state of the other atom in the compound. The charge of transition can also be determined in the case of neutral complexes where the transition element has combined with other atoms to form molecular complexes that are either positively or negatively charged, e.g. MnO4-. Lastly Neutral transition metal compounds which are soluble in water have a charge of +3 or less than+3.
