Which statements about reducing sugars are true? D‑Glucose (an aldose) is a reducing sugar. The oxidation of a reducing sugar fo

qaws [65]

Answer:

The true statements are given below.

Explanation:

1 D glucose is a reducing sugar

2 The oxidation of reducing sugar forms a carboxylic acid sugar.

D glucose is a reducing sugar because glucose contain a free hydroxyl group (-OH)in its anomeric carbon.

The oxidation of reducing sugar result in the conversion of -CHO group in case of aldose sugar and -CH2OH group in case of ketose sugar into carboxylic acid(-COOH).

The work function of palladium (Pd) is 5.22 eV. What is the minimum frequency of light to observe the photoelectric effect from

Ivan

Answer:

1)4×10^13Hz

2) 9.95×10-9J

Explanation:

From the image attached, it is clear that the work function of the palladium metal must first be obtained in joules. Then, the frequency is obtained from E=hf.

The kinetic energy if the photoelectrons is obtained as the difference between the energy of the photon and the work function of the metal.

Water cycle simply refers to the continuous movement or flow of water from the atmosphere to the earth and back to the atmosphere

<h3>What is are the stages of water cycle?</h3>

These are the basic stages through which water passes. These stages are:

Evaporation
Condensation
Precipitation
Collection.

So therefore, water cycle simply refers to the continuous movement or flow of water from the atmosphere to the earth and back to the atmosphere
