Define "Homoglycan" and "Heteroglycan" and give an example of each

Chemistry
1 answer:
lina2011 [118]2 years ago
4 0

Answer:

Polysaccharides, also known as glycans, are the polymers of carbohydrate. These polymers are composed of the monosaccharide monomeric units that are joined together by glycosidic bonds.  

A polysaccharide molecule composed of the same type of monosaccharide units is known as homopolysaccharide or homoglycan.

Example: Cellulose, glycogen, and cellulose.

Whereas, a polysaccharide molecule composed of more than type of monosaccharide is known as heteropolysaccharides or heteroglycans.

Examples: Hyaluronic acid and heparin

How does the light source readout differ from the x-ray readout in the gizmo??
Nuetrik [128]
X-rays differ from the light source readout in terms of the intensity and the possible damage that can be obtained from the two radiation types. The light source readout is more damaging than the X-rays readout in the gizmo. Therefore, precaution is required when handling the light source readout in the gizmo.

A chemical change

Explanation:

In this reaction, a chemical change has occurred, here are some indicators of chemical changes from the reaction;

Chemical changes are changes in which new products are formed.

  • Formation of bubbles and precipitates: these are new substances that indicates a chemical change. The bubbles and insoluble precipitate are good indicators of chemical change.
  • A temperature change that is large; This is also typifies chemical changes. When temperature rises in reaction, a chemical change has occurred.
  • The bubbles and precipitates cannot be combined to give the reactants. The reaction is irreversible.

A cough syrup contains 5.0% ethyl alcohol, c2h5oh, by mass. if the density of the solution is 0.9928 g/ml, determine the molarit
WARRIOR [948]
To answer the question above, let us a basis of the 1000 mL or 1 L. 
                 volume = (0.9928 g/mL)(1000mL) = 992.8 g
Then, determine the mass of the alcohol by multiplying the total mass by the decimal equivalent of 5%. 
               mass of alcohol = 0.05(992.8 g) = 49.64 g
Then, determine the number of moles of ethyl alcohol by dividing the mass of alcohol by the molar mass (46 g/mol). 
                       n = 49.64 g/ (46 g/mol) = 1.08 mol
Then, divide the number of moles by the volume (our basis is 1 L)
                       molarity = 1.08 mol/ 1 L = 1.08 M
