What is the basic definition of carbohydrates

Chemistry
2 answers:
ikadub [295]3 years ago
8 0

Carbohydrates are substances that are found in foods such as bread and pasta, which provide the body with heat and energy. Chemically, carbohydrates are made of three kinds of elements namely carbon , hydrogen and oxygen.

Carbohydrates are separated into two main categories, simple carbohydrates and complex carbohydrates.  

Simple carbohydrates are those that contain one or two sugar molecules linked together. Complex carbohydrates are those that contain  three or more sugar molecules linked together. In some cases these chains can contain hundreds of sugar molecules.

The total volume required to reach the endpoint of a titration required more than the 50 mL total volume of the buret. An initia
Margaret [11]

Answer:

The endpoint volume is 50.52 ±  0.14 mL

Explanation:

In a titration always is necessary to subtract the blank volume to the titrant volume to obtain the real volume of the titrant. Thus in this case, the total endpoint volume is the sum of the initial volume delivered and the second volume delivered, minus the blank volume:

V = (49.16±0.06 mL) + (1.69±0.04 mL) - (0.33±0.04 mL)

V = (49.16 + 1.69 - 0.33) ± (0.06+0.04+0.04) mL

V = 50.52 ±  0.14 mL

It is necessary to consider the sum of the errors too.

As the mass of an object increases, what happens to the gravitational force created by that object?
alexandr1967 [171]

Answer:

the gravitational force is proportional to the mass of both interacting objects, bigger objects will attract each other with a greater gravitational force. So the mass of either object increases, the force of gravitational attraction between them also increases.

Carbon and Oxygen, Argon and Helium.

Explanation:

noble gases have full outer shells of electrons, and so cannot share other atoms' electrons to form bonds. sodium and chlorine form an ionic bond.

Which is heavier einsteinium (Es) or europium (Eu)
Maksim231197 [3]

Answer:

Einsteinium is heavier

Explanation:

Atomic weight is what we are referring to when figuring out how heavy an element is and is measured in amu (atomic mass units)

(This is also the same as the molar mass how heavy 6.022 x 10^23 atoms of a substance or element is which is measured in grams)

The atomic weight of an element can be found on a periodic table.

Europium has an atomic mass of approximately 152 amu (atomic mass units)

Einsteinium has an atomic mass of approximately 252 amu.

Einsteinium has a higher atomic weight so it's heavier.

There's another easier way of going about it where you don't even have to think about the actual number and basically just look at the element's atomic number and position on the periodic table.

Eu is 63

Es is 99

As the atomic number increases on the periodic table this means it's number of protons is greater.

Protons lie in the nucleus which has most of the atom's weight so the more protons the heavier it is.

Einsteinium has a higher atomic number meaning it has more protons so we can assume it's the heavier one.

Hope this helps!

How do the isotopes carbon-12 and carbon-13 differ?
Leya [2.2K]

Explanation:

Carbon exists in several isotopes. ... Carbon has the atomic number of 6 which means that all isotopes have the same proton number. However, the number of neutrons is different, thus giving different mass numbers. Carbon-12 has 6 neutrons, carbon-13 has 7 neutrons, and carbon-14 contains 8 neutrons.
