Chapter 2, Problem 29RA
Summary Introduction
To review:
The molecular weight of sucrose.
Introduction:
Sucrose is a disaccharide of two monomer units which are glucose and fructose. It is formed by the elimination of one water molecule in the dehydration synthesis reaction. Sucrose is a common sugar that is used in the kitchen. Molecular weight is the sum of the atomic masses of all atoms in a compound or molecule.

70 degree Celcious is the melting point of stearic acid, and 4 degree Celcius is the melting point of oleic acid. Explain using the concept of lipids why their melting point is so different.
The hydrolysis of the disaccharide sucrose results in the formation of the
monosaccharides glucose and fructose, and the AG of this reaction is -29.3 kJ/mol.
Sucrase is an enzyme that is able to catalyze the hydrolysis of sucrose. Which of the
following statement(s) correctly describes what would happen if you added the
enzyme sucrase to a solution of sucrose?
All of the other three statements are correct.
The activation energy of the reaction would increase.
The AG of the reaction would become more negative (i.e., a larger negative
number).
The rate of sucrose hydrolysis would increase.
Sketch a titration curve and the structures of the major ionic forms of glutamic acid that exist in solution at the noted parts of the titration curve. Refer to the fully pronated glutamic acid and the pKa.

- A patient is suspected of having low stomach acid, a condition known as hypochloridia. To determine whether the patient has this condition, her doctors take a 18.00 mL sample of her gastric juices and titrate the sample with 4.85 × 10-4 M KOH. The gastric juice sample required 1.26 mL of the KOH titrant to neutralize it. Calculate the pH of the gastric juice sample. Assume the sample contained no ingested food or drink which might otherwise interfere with the titration. pH = For the patient to be suffering from hypochloridia, the pH of the gastric juices from the stomach must be greater than pH 4.
