Answer:

Glucose

Explanation:

Glucose, also called dextrose is one of a group of carbohydrates known as simple sugars or monosaccharides. Glucose is derived from the Greek word 'glykys' meaning “sweet”. It has the molecular formula C6H12O6. It is commonly found in fruits and honey and is the major free sugar circulating in the blood of higher animals. It is the source of energy in cell function, and the regulation of its metabolism is of great importance. Molecules of starch, the major energy-reserve of carbohydrate of plants, consist of thousands of linear glucose units. Another major compound composed of glucose is cellulose, which is also linear. Dextrose is the molecule D-glucose.

Glucose is composed of carbon hydrogen and oxygen in a ratio of 1:2:1 as typified by its formula. It is known for its sweet taste. It can be combined with fructose in table sugar.

xxMikexx [17]

Answer:

b. some sodium iodide will precipitate out of solution

Explanation:

We know that for salts solubility decreases as the temperature of the solution decreases. So, NaI being a salt, its solubility will surely decrease when the temperature is cooled down to 25°C from 50°C.

Thus,the undissolved sodium iodide will precipitate out of the solution.
