Why are salt and sugar both able to dissolve in water, even though the solutes have different types of chemical bonding?

Answer:Water is polar molecule, ionic compound dissolves in it as like dissolves like.

there is ionic interaction between a salt and water

Sugar has hydroxyl group in it. These hydroxyl group are able to form hydrogen bond with water molecule.

[Hydrogen bond : the interaction between a hydrogen, bonded with a highly electro-negative element (F,O,N) and other highly electro-negative element (F,O,N)]

Thus due to hydrogen bond sugar is soluble in water.

Explanation:The water molecules, , are polar, with positive partial charges on the hydrogen and a negative partial charge on the oxygen. This makes it possible to interact with ionic compounds such as salt (NaCl). This interaction occurs through the partially positive and negative ends of the water, so that the positive charges attract the negative ones. The NaCl salt in water dissociates (separates) into  and  ions. ions are surrounded by negative partial charges of water oxygen, while  ions are surrounded by hydrogen ends with positive partial charge. In this way the salt is dissolved in water.

Sugar is a molecular compound formed by covalent bonds. In a polar covalent bond, electrons are shared unevenly. This creates a slightly negatively charged end and a slightly positively charged end. This is what happens with sugar. These extremes are those that interact with the positive and negative extremes of water, mentioned previously. Then it is possible to say that sugar dissolves in water because both substances are polar substances.

In short, water dissolves most of the substances that are polar or ionic, as in the case of sugar and salt.

4: The shikimate pathway is critically important and found in plants. Discuss reasons why this pathway is so important and even
Alecsey [184]

Answer:

Explanation:

For the growth and flourishing of animals Aromatic amino acids are very important, but because of lack of shikimate these amino acids are not synthesized in animals pathway.But this pathway is found in both plants and micro organisms and they have the ability to produce these amino acids as well as some secondary metabolites required in animals.

There are different role played by this pathway in organisms such as;

1) It serve as a source of Tryptophan and phenylalanie which are important aromatic amino acid.

2)Neuroactive substances such as serotonin,epinephrine are biosynthesized as result of the product from the pathway.

3)Alkaloids that's found in plants as well as antibiotics possessed by microbes, which are essential therapeutical in animals are secondary metabolites that is biosynthesized as a result of the activities of this product of this pathway.

4)Shikimate is useful in the synthesizing of 6-Fluoroshikimic acid.

5) The shikimate pathway is important for the synthesis of a plethora of aromatic compounds in both plants and bacteria as well as fungi.

Federico has two samples of pure water—sample X and sample Y. Sample X has a volume of 1 L, and sample Y has a volume of 10 L. H
Lostsunrise [7]

Answer:

The boiling point of sample X and sample Y are exactly the same.

Explanation:

The difference between sample X and sample Y is that they occupy different volumes. However, they both contain pure water. Remember that pure water has uniform composition irrespective of its volume.

Volume does not affect the boiling point as long as the volume is small enough not to give rise to significant pressure changes in the liquid.

The boiling point of a liquid is the temperature at which the pressure exerted by the surroundings upon a liquid is equaled by the pressure exerted by the vapour of the liquid; under this condition, addition of heat results in the transformation of the liquid into its vapour without raising the temperature.

It can be clearly seen from the above that the volume of a solution of pure water does not affect its boiling point hence sample X and sample Y will have the same boiling point.
