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.

An experiment applies heat to a substance and produces a gas that is a new and different substance. Choose the true statement.
sergejj [24]
Im a bit torn here, lets look at the definitions of physical and chemical changes:
physical change changes only the phase/state of a substance, but not what the substance is
chemical change is a chemical reaction where a new substance is formed and energy is given off or absorbed.
(it just started raining and it smells really nice out my window)

clearly, this cannot be just a physical reaction. i think i would be inclined to pick B. but C. could have merit as an answer too. sorry for the ambiguity x

How to determine the type of hybridization in a coordination compound​
Drupady [299]

Answer:

1. The metal atom/ion in these compounds are Ni and Ni2+ respectively.

2. The electrons from s oribital will jump to d orbital and so I expect CO to donate electron pairs in 4p and 4s orbitals and form sp3 hybridisation.
