Answer:

<em>hehe I needed some brianliest plz OK </em>

Explanation:

<em>Glucose and galactose are monosaccharides that differ from one another only at position C-4. Thus, they are epimers that have an identical configuration in all the positions except in position C-4. ... Glucose and galactose are epimers that do not differ in position C-5 but differ in position C-4.</em>

Glucose and mannose are epimers that differ at the C-2 carbon, while glucose and galactose are epimers that differ at the C-4 carbon, as shown below. When a molecule such as glucose converts to a cyclic form, it generates a new chiral center at C-1.

Covert 32 ft/sec^2 to m/min^2

igor_vitrenko [27]

Answer:

Explanation:

585.2 meters per minute in 32 feet per second To convert any value in feet per second to meters per minute, just multiply the value in feet per second by the conversion factor 18.288. So, 32 feet per second times 18.288 is equal to 585.2 m/min.
