The active compound was isolated from the french lilac plant and was first used in the 1770s to treat individuals with excessive thirst and frequent urination (LaMoia & Shulman, 2020). Its exact mechanism of action is still under debate, but it ultimately works to lower blood glucose levels. Which of the following proposed mechanisms could explain how metformin works?

This is where you come in! The students are stuck at this point and really need your help! Main Goal: Convert the experimental glucose concentration (provided in the table below) from mM (millimolar) to g/100 mL. Hints & Tips Take the 1/100 dilution factor into consideration Molarity will open the doors for you to get to grams. Once at M assume 1L of solution. (Hint: this will help you when converting from M to moles) You will also need to calculate the molar mass of glucose which has the formula C6H12O6 There are 5 steps in total Task 1: Write a step-by-step guide with key words for the Chem 2 students on how to do these calculations. You can use diagrams, a table or just type the steps out. Ensure the steps…arrow_forward
