C is wrong, the real answer is B: to add tartness, and the reason why is because citric acid comes from jam, jellies, and more! And that is why the answer B is the correct answer.

Hope this helped!

Nate

(P.S. if you buy jams and real the ingredients, it will say "citric acid." :))

An analytical chemist has determined by measurements that there are 8.5 moles of magnesium in a sample of talc. How many moles o
MrRissso [65]

There are 5.66 moles of hydrogen in the sample of talc(hydrated magnesium silicate).

Given,

Talc formula is  Mg_{3} Si_4O_{10} (OH)_2

moles of magnesium = 8.5 moles

The stoichiometry of magnesium and hydrogen is 3 : 2,

So 3 moles of magnesium is equivalent to 2 moles of hydrogen.

Then 8.5 moles of magnesium is equivalent to \frac{2}{3} *8.5=5.6666 moles

<h3>Talc </h3>

Talc(hydrated magnesium silicate), often known as talcum, is a type of clay mineral made up of hydrated magnesium silicate, having the formula Mg3Si4O10(OH)2. Baby powder is made of powdered talc, frequently mixed with corn starch. This mineral serves as a lubricant and thickening agent. It serves as a component in paint, pottery, and roofing materials. It serves as a key component in many cosmetics. It can be found as foliated to fibrous aggregates and in a remarkably uncommon crystal form. It is foliated with a two-dimensional platy form, has a flawless basal cleavage, and an irregular flat fracture.

Talc(hydrated magnesium silicate), the softest mineral, is assigned a value of 1 on the Mohs scale of mineral hardness, which is based on scratch hardness comparisons.

Explain what a glycosolation reaction is
AVprozaik [17]

Answer:

The glycosylation reaction or glycoside formation is an organic reaction in which the hemiacetal group of cyclists ketoses or aldoses turns into acetals, named glycosides. Reaction in the attached picture.

Explanation:

Carbohydrates can be found in an open-chain form or a cyclic form. For the second one, the carbonyl group of the aldehyde could react with the alcohol group of the molecule to form the cycle. As shown in the attached picture, the alcohol group of this cyclic form could react with an alcohol (like methanol) in acidic conditions to form an acetal. These compounds are stable at neutral and acidic conditions, but they hydrolyze at basic conditions. This reaction produces both acetals anomers (α and β) because the attack of the nucleophile (alcohol) could be from both sides. However, the most stable anomer will predominate.
