Depending on culture conditions, glucose can be catabolized by yeast to produce ethanol and carbon dioxide, or canbe diverted into other biosynthetic reactions. An inoculum of yeast is added to a solution containing 18 g/L glucose.After some time, only 3.5 g/L glucose remains while the concentration of ethanol is 6 g/L.CGH1206→2C2H,0+2CO2Determine:a) The fractional conversion of glucose to ethanol (remember that fractional conversion values go from 0 to 1 andsome glucose is diverted into other reactions)b) The fractional conversion of glucose, considering all the glucose that was consumed, not only the glucoseconverted to ethanolc) The yield of ethanol from glucose in gram/gram

Suppose you have a mixture of copper sulfate (CuSO4) and azulene (C10H8, you may wish to know the structure of azulene). Both copper sulfate and azulene are beautiful deep blue cystalline solids. If you transferred the mixture to a separatory funnel containing both an aqueous and and organic solvents (1M HCl and dichloromethane), into which layer would the copper sulfate partition, aqueous or organic? Aqueous layer (1M HCl) Organic layer (dichloromethane) Copper sulfate would partition nearly equally into both the aqueous and organic layers

An 90 kg subject consumed a snack that contained 80 g of carbohydrate. Before eating the snack the subject’s blood glucose was 6.0 mmol.L-1. Calculate the concentration of glucose (mM) that would be reached in the blood after consuming the snack.Assume that all the carbohydrate in the snack was converted to glucose, rapidly absorbed and distributed throughout the extracellular water (ECW) within 30 minutes. Assume ECW is approximately 20% of body weight and the glucose is not metabolised further.

TRUE OR FALSE 1. Medicated elixirs are advantageous in adjusting the dose that may be increased or decreased by simply taking more or less of the elixir. 2. It is impossible to increase or decrease the amount taken of one ingredient without and automatic and corresponding adjustment in the dose taken of the other. 3. Then the alcoholic solution is added to the aqueous solution in order to maintain the highest possible alcoholic strength. 4. Saccharin is used for elixirs with low alcoholic content required only in small amounts. 5. Proportion of alcohol varies widely in elixirs since the individual components. 6. The final mixture of elixir will be clear since the separation of some of the flavoring oils by the reduced alcoholic concentration. 7. Permission of the oil globules oil to coalesce leads to difficulty in filtration. 8. Wetting the filter paper and collection flask using the solvent ensures continued solubility of the alcoholic ingredients. 9. Elixirs are best stored in…
