Please help: How do oxidation reactions help people with diabetes monitor their blood glucose levels? Thank you!!!

Chemistry
1 answer:
solong [7]3 years ago

Answer:-

People with diabetes must monitor their blood glucose levels constantly.

Blood glucose levels are nowadays measured by the help of enzyme glucose oxidase. The enzyme glucose oxidase catalyzes the oxidation of glucose to gluconic acid.

By this way all of the glucose is measured at one time. At the same time hydrogen peroxide is produced.

The hydrogen peroxide reacts with a second color producing chemical. The concentration of the glucose can be related to the intensity of color produced

Which of these describes a Mole in Chemistry?
olya-2409 [2.1K]

Answer: Thus the correct option is  D. All of the above describe a mole

Explanation:

According to avogadro's law, 1 mole of every substance weighs equal to molecular mass in grams.

1 mole of every substance contains avogadro's number 6.023\times 10^{23} of particles.

Mole is the S.I unit for measuring the amount of substance. It is often used to measure large number of particles.

Thus the correct option is  D. All of the above describe a mole

Ex 1) 45.2 g of Zn = _____ moles Zn<br><br> Ex 2) 0.568 moles Ag = _____ grams Ag
Jlenok [28]

the molar mass of Zn is 65

  • number of mole(n)=reacting mass/molar mass
  • n=45.2/65
  • =0.70g/mol

2.the molar mass of Ag is 108

  • 0.568=m/108
  • then cross multiply
  • m=0.568×108
  • m=61.3g
