You want to sweeten a cup of tea, and you have three types of sugar: sugar cubes (volume: 5ml), granulated sugar (volume: 0.1 ml

), and powdered sugar (volume: 0.0001 ml). Which sugar would dissolve the fastest? Why?

Answer:

powdered sugar

Explanation:

The higher is the exposed area of sugar, the faster is the dissolution process. Thus, to choose between the different types of sugar, we have to look at the volume occupied by the sugar.

In sugar cubes, the particles of sugar as compacted in a cube, so the particles inside the cube are not exposed to the solvent (water). So, sugar cubes have the slowest dissolution process. Then, in granulated sugar, the particles have more area exposed, so this type of sugar will dissolve faster than sugar cubes. Finally, powdered sugar is composed of tiny particles with more are exposed, so powdered sugar has the fastest dissolution process.

Therefore, powdered sugar will dissolve the fastest.

In glycolysis, if glucose is labeled at the carbon 6 position (see page 1 for numbering of carbons in glucose) A) the carbon wit
Oliga [24]

Answer:

D) the carbon with the low-energy phosphate on it in 1,3 BPG is labeled.

Explanation:

Glycolysis has 2 phase (1) preparatory phase (2) pay-off phase.

<u>(1) Preparatory phase</u>

During preparatory phase glucose is converted into fructose-1,6-bisphosphate. Till this time the carbon numbering remains the same i.e. if we will label carbon at 6th position of glucose, its position will remian the same in fructose-1,6-bisphosphate that means the labeled carbon will still remain at 6th position.

When fructose-1,6-bisphosphate is further catalyzed with the help of enzyme aldolase it is cleaved into two 3 carbon intermediates which are glyceraldehyde 3-phosphate (GAP) and dihyroxyacetone  phosphate (DHAP).  In this conversion, the first three carbons of fructose-1,6-bisphosphate become carbons of DHAP while the last three carbons of fructose-1,6-bisphosphate will become carbons of GAP. It simply means that GAP will acquire the last carbon of fructose-1,6-bisphosphate which is labeled. Now the last carbon of GAP which has phosphate will be labeled.  

<u>(2) Pay-off phase</u>

During this phase, GAP is dehydrogenated into 1,3-bisphosphoglycerate (BPG) with the help of enzyme glyceraldehyde 3-phosphate dehydrogenase. This oxidation is coupled to phosphorylation of C1 of GAP and this is the reason why 1,3-bisphosphoglycerate has phosphates at 2 positions i.e. at position 1 in which phosphate is newly added and position 3rd which already had labeled carbon.

It is pertinent to mention here that<u> BPG has a mixed anhydride and the bond at C1 is a very high energy bond.</u> In the next step, this high energy bond is hydrolyzed into a carboxylic acid with the help of enzyme phosphoglycerate kinase and the final product is 3-phosphoglycerate. Hence, the carbon with low energy phosphate i.e. the carbon at 3rd position remains labeled.

Will the electronegativity of tellurium be larger or smaller than that of antimony?
ddd [48]

Answer:

Tellurium has a higher electronegativity than antimony because it has one more proton which creates a stronger attraction between the protons and electrons.
