- Determine the chemical formula for each of the following carbohydrates. Use the ratio for carbohydrates to fill in the missing number in the chemical formula. Example: C3H?O3 = C3H6O3 1:2:1 ratio Carbon 1 x 3 = 3 Hydrogen 2 x 3 = 6 Oxygen 1 x 3 = 3 C6H__O6 C5H__O5 C7H__O7 C4H__O4arrow_forwardDetermine the chemical formula for the following molecules by counting the Carbon, Hydrogen and Oxygen atoms. Determine if the molecule is a carbohydrate by checking the ratio of atoms. 5. Ho C H-C-OH I H-C-OH H-C-OH [ CH₂OH 6.

- Consider these compounds: A. PbBr, B. MnS C. Ag,CO3 D. AIPO, Complete the following statements by entering the letter(s) corresponding to the correct compound(s). (If more than one compound fits the description, include all the relevant compounds by writing your answer as a string of characters without punctuation, e.g, ABC.) Without doing any calculations it is possible to determine that magnesium fluoride is more soluble than and magnesium fluoride is less soluble than| It is not possible to determine whether magnesium fluoride is more or less soluble than by simply comparing Kgp values.arrow_forwardIndicate whether each of the following statement about enantiomers is True or False. a. Enantiomers always have the same molecular formula. b. Enantiomers always have the same structural formula. c. Enantiomers are always nonsupetrimposable mirror images of each other. d. Enantiomers always differ in handedness.arrow_forwardDefine the following terms: a. glycoside b. disaccharide c. oligosaccharide d. polysaccharide e. glycosidic linkagearrow_forward
- Give the molecular formula of the functional group that is missing. a. NH+ b. CH3 c. COOH d. C6H12O6arrow_forwardWhat structure is labeled B? B A 台 G H Farrow_forwardA carbon atom contains six protons and six neutrons.A. What are its atomic number and atomic weight?B. How many electrons does it have?C. How many additional electrons must it add to fill its outermost shell? How does this affect carbon’s chemical behavior?D. Carbon with an atomic weight of 14 is radioactive. How does it differ in structure from nonradioactive carbon? How does this difference affect its chemical behavior?arrow_forward
- Ninhydrin is a compound that is commonly used in forensic identification, because it turns purple in contact with the amino acids often found in sweat residue. Using the structure provided, answer the questions below. b. How many carboxylic acid functional groups are present? Explain your answer. OH OHarrow_forwardThe “octet rule” in chemistry helps predict the types of bonds thatatoms will form. In general, an atom will be most stable if it fills itsouter shell of 8 electrons. Atoms with fewer than 4 valence electronstend to donate electrons and those with more than 4 valence electronstend to accept additional electrons; those with exactly 4 can do both.Using this rule, determine what category each of the followingelements falls into: N, S, C, P, O, H, Ca, Fe, and Mg. (You will needto work out the valence of the atoms.)arrow_forwardConsider the given data (Solubility Tests, Solubility Group, Chemical Tests, and Functional Group) in the experiment. Based on the results of the solubility tests and chemical tests, what is the most probable structure of C4H6O2? Draw your answer. You may draw the compound using line-bond formula OR Lewis structure.arrow_forward
