Answer:

Monosaccharides are the simplest form of carbohydrates that cannot be hydrolyzed to smaller compounds. Monosaccharides are the basic units of carbohydrates and are also known as simple sugars.  

The monosaccharides are classified on the basis of number of carbon atoms present.

Triose is a type of monosaccharide molecule, which is composed of 3 carbon atoms.

Tetrose is a type of monosaccharide molecule, which is composed of 4 carbon atoms.

Pentose is a type of monosaccharide molecule, which is composed of 5 carbon atoms.

Hexose is a type of monosaccharide molecule, which is composed of 6 carbon atoms.

D-glucose is a hexose sugar and it is the <u>most abundant monosaccharide</u> in the nature.

If the heating curve is reversed, what describes the boiling point?
GalinKa [24]
Boiling is the process of converting a substance from liquid state to gaseous state. If the heating curve is reversed, the process also is reversed from converting gaseous state to liquid state. In this case, the reverse of boiling is condensation. So the answer is point of condensation.

What is the meaning of cryosphere
nikklg [1K]

Answer:

The part of the earth’s surface where, at temperatures below 32°F (0°C), the water is frozen solid. Even a small pond while frozen over during the winter is part of the cryosphere, but cryosphere refers more often to large regions covered in snow and ice for much or all of the year, as the ice sheets of Antarctica and Greenland, glaciers, icebergs, and expanses of permafrost, all of which are especially sensitive to global shifts in climate:

Anthracene is a yellow, crystalline solid found in coal tar. complete this structure for anthracene, c14h10, by adding bonds and
Assoli18 [71]

Anthracene is a polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbon with chemical formula C₁₄H₁₀. The number of fused rings in Anthracene are three in number. This compound is colorful and is used in the formation of different dyes due to its property of deloclization of pi electrons. All the carbon atoms in Anthracene are sp² hybridized with a trigonal planar structure hence, the Anthracene is planar in nature.

Number of Sigma Bonds:

                                         There are 26 sigma bonds (colored in Blue) in Anthracene among which 10 sigma bonds are between carbon and hydrogen atoms while the remaining are between the carbon atoms.

Number of Pi-Bonds:

                                  There are 7 pi bonds in Anthracene (colored in red). All pi bonds are present between carbon and carbon atoms.

Number of Electrons in Sigma Bonds:

                                                             As one sigma bond is formed by 2 electrons hence, 26 sigma bonds will be formed by 52 electrons.

Number of Electrons in Pi Bonds:

                                                       As one pi bond is formed by the side wise overlap of two p orbitals hence one pi bond is formed by two electrons so, 7 pi bonds will be formed by 14 electrons.

How do you balance this:<br> Br2 + H2O + SO2 = HBr + H2SO4
pochemuha

Answer:

Br2+ 2H2O + SO2= 2HBr + H2SO4

Let's Compare the left side of the equation to the right side of the equation.

Left: Br= 2, H= 2, S= 1, O = 1+2

Right: Br=1, H= 1+2, S=1, O= 4

We can see that only S is balanced and not the other 3 elements.

I'll try to make each element balance.

For Br; I'll multiply by 2 on the left to make it equal to the right.

For H; Since the 2 for Br on the right affected also H, that H ( for HBr) Already has a 2, but then it adds with the other H2( for H2SO4) to give a total of 4 H on the right side. But then there's only 2 H on the left. so we multiply that 2 by a 2 ( which is written infront of the H2O to give a total of 4 H on the left side.

For O; Because of the 2 infront of the H2O, it affects the O in H2O..so now we have 2 O plus the 2 O ( in SO2) to give a total of 4 O which is equal to the right side.
