Answer: Most people are familiar with carbohydrates, one type of macromolecule, especially when it comes to what we eat. To lose weight, some individuals adhere to “low-carb” diets. Athletes, in contrast, often “carb-load” before important competitions to ensure that they have enough energy to compete at a high level. Carbohydrates are, in fact, an essential part of our diet; grains, fruits, and vegetables are all natural sources of carbohydrates. Carbohydrates provide energy to the body, particularly through glucose, a simple sugar that is a component of starch and an ingredient in many staple foods. Carbohydrates also have other important functions in humans, animals, and plants.

Carbohydrates can be represented by the stoichiometric formula (CH2O)n, where n is the number of carbons in the molecule. In other words, the ratio of carbon to hydrogen to oxygen is 1:2:1 in carbohydrate molecules. This formula also explains the origin of the term “carbohydrate”: the components are carbon (“carbo”) and the components of water (hence, “hydrate”). Carbohydrates are classified into three subtypes: monosaccharides, disaccharides, and polysaccharides.

What is the difference between ionic compund and covalent compound

sleet_krkn [62]

A covalent bond is formed between two non-metals that have similar electronegativities.

An ionic bond is formed between a metal and a non-metal. Non-metals(-ve ion) are "stronger" than the metal(+ve ion) and can get electrons very easily from the metal. These two opposite ions attract each other and form the ionic bond.

snow_lady [41]

Answer:

Project 3.

Explanation:

Project 3's anticipated cost is 12 to 17 million dollars. It is a lower anticipated cost than Project 2 and Project 4, but higher than Project 1 by one million dollars at maximum cost anticipation. Additionally, the percentage of wildlife to benefit is 70-80%, which is second to the most wildlife to benefit which is Project 4 at 75-80%.

And finally, for community support for Project 3 - the chart lists it as high. This outclasses Project 2 and Project 4, but balances with Project 1. However, Project 1 costs 13 to 16 million dollars and only benefits 15-25% of wildlife.

Write the net ionic equation for the reaction between hydrocyanic acid and potassium hydroxide. Do not include states such as (a

eimsori [14]

Answer:

The net ionic equation is as follows:

HCN(aq) + OH-(aq) ----> H20(l) + CN-(aq)

Explanation:

The reaction between Hydrocyanic acid, HCN, and sodium hydroxide is a neutralization reaction between a weak acid and a strong base.

Hydrocyanic acid being a weak acid ionizes only slightly, while sodium hydroxide being a strong base ionizes completely. The equation for the reaction is given below:

A. HCN(aq) + NaOH-(aq) ----> NaCN(aq) + H2O(l)

Since Hydrocyanic acid is written in the aqueous form as it ionizes only slightly and the ionic equation is given below:

HCN(aq) + Na+(aq)+OH-(aq) ----> Na+(aq)+CN-(aq) + H2O(l)

Na+ being a spectator ion is removed from the net ionic equation given below:

HCN(aq) + OH-(aq) ----> H20(l) + CN-(aq)
