Glucose is a hexose monosaccharide. It is one of the three major monosaccharides along with fructose and galactose. These are carbohydrates with a general formula of Cₓ(H₂O)ₓ, where x could be any number.

Now, you don't have to know the structural formula of the glucose to answer this. Just account all the elements in the glucose. You know that there are 6 oxygen atoms all in all. One of them belongs to the single carbonyl group. Consequently, that would mean that the remaining 5 oxygen atoms bond with hydrogen atoms to form 5 OH groups.

Just to be sure let us refer to the structural formula of glucose shown in the picture. It indeed has 5 OH groups.

Which pair of atoms will MOST likely form a covalent bond?
Gelneren [198K]

Answer:

An atom with 1 valence electron and an atom with 7 valence electrons

Explanation:

Covalent bond:

It is formed by the sharing of electron pair between bonded atoms.  

The atom with larger electronegativity attract the electron pair more towards it self and becomes partial negative while the other atom becomes partial positive.

For example:

In water the electronegativity of oxygen is 3.44 and hydrogen is 2.2. That's why electron pair attracted more towards oxygen, thus oxygen becomes partial negative and hydrogen becomes partial positive.

the number of valance electrons of oxygen are six and hydrogen is one that's why two hydrogen atoms are attached with one oxygen atom and complete the octet.

An ion with a -2 charge has? A) one missing protein B) two missing protons c) two missing electrons D) two extra electrons
Andreyy89

Answer:

D.

Explanation:

It would not be gain because it would say +6 instead of -2. Having a -2 charge means it wants to loose 2 electrons so it can form a full shell of 8 electrons. It wants to be inert (stable).

- Hope that helps! Please let me know if you need further explanation.

How does evolution work
sergey [27]
Billions of years ago, according to the theory of evolution, chemicals randomly organized themselves into a self-replicating molecule. This spark of life was the seed of every living thing we see today (as well as those we no longer see, like dinosaurs). That simplest life form, through the processes of mutation and natural selection, has been shaped into every living species on the planet.
