If a sugar crystal has 1000 molecules how many atoms are present? PLEASE HELP

This will depend on the type of sugar, but since glucose is the standard as far as sugars go, we'll use it. The chemical formula for glucose is C6H12O6, meaning it has six carbon atoms, twelve hydrogen atoms, and six oxygen atoms, for a total of 24 atoms. If you have 1000 glucose molecules in a crystal, you have a total of 24,000 atoms (24 X 1000).

Answer:

One molecule of glucose sugar contains 6 carbon atom, 12 hydrogen atom, and 6 oxygen atom. So there are 24 atoms present in one molecule of glucose sugar.

So if there are 1000 molecules of glucose sugar present in a sugar crystal than there will be 6000 carbon atoms, 12000 hydrogen atoms, and 6000 oxygen atoms will be present making a total of 24000 atoms in 1000 molecules of sugar crystal.

Therefore, there will be 24000 atoms present in 1000 molecules of sugar crystal of glucose.

Match each lipid with its correct components or description.

Mumz [18]

Answer:

(1) glycerophospholipids ⟶ (C) lipids with phosphate-containing head groups

(2) cerebrosides ⟶ (D) fatty acid linked through an amide bond to the sphingosine C(2)-amine

(3) gangliosides ⟶ (B) anionic sphingolipids containing one or more sialic acid residues

(4) sphingolipids ⟶ (A) built on sphingosine

Explanation:

1) Choline (Fig. 1) is a glycerophospholipid. It is a glycerol-based lipid with a phosphate-containing head group.

(2) Galactosylceramide (Fig. 2) is a cerebroside. It contains a fatty acid linked through an amide bond to the sphingosine C(2)-amine

(3) Gangliosides are glycosphingolipids that contain sialic acid. GQ1b (Fig. 3) is one of the most abundant gangliosides in the human brain. The carboxyl group of the sialic acid is in the ionic form.

(4) Sphingomyelin (Fig. 4) is a sphingolipid. It is based on sphingosine, with a phosphocholine head and a fatty acid chain.

Microtubules are composed of two different types of ____________ subunit that form a _______________.

Alborosie

Microtubules are composed of two different types of tubulin. Namely, these simpler units are called alpha-tubulin and beta-tubulin. These subunits are essentially tightly bound together to form heterodimers. In the microtubule structure, they are arranged in an organized manner in such a way that they in parallel direction with protofilaments.
