The name carbohydrate comes from the fact that many simple sugars have chemical formulae that look like water has simply been added to carbon. (The suffix hydrate from the Greek word hydor ("water") means "compound formed by the addition of water.") The actual chemical structure of carbohydrates doesn't look anything like water molecules bonded to carbon atoms (see sketch at right). But it is nevertheless possible to chemically extract all the hydrogen and oxygen from many simple carbohydrates as water, leaving only carbon behind. If you search the Internet for "reaction of sulfuric acid and sugar" you will find some impressive videos of this. Suppose you had (200. g) of ordinary table sugar, which chemists call sucrose, and which has the chemical formula C₁2H22011. Calculate the maximum mass of water you could theoretically extract. Be sure your answer has alunit symbol, and round it to 3 significant digits. 0 X HO CH₂OH O OH OH OH The actual chemical structure of glucose.

The amount of UVA radiation hitting a surface at sea level in a lightly clouded day is about 70W/m2 . About half of that can be absorbed by the skin. A typical carboncarbon bond requires 348 kJ/mol to break. A person lies on the beach for about 1 hour without sunscreen (i.e. fully exposed to UVA radiation). Estimate the number of C-C bonds broken in this person’s back (about 0.18 m2 ) over that period. Assume that the average wavelength of UVA is 335 nm.

Because carbon and silicon are both elements in group 14 on the periodic table, we expect them to react with other elements in similar ways. To some extent, they do, but in some cases, carbon and silicon compounds that seem to have analogous structures have very different chemical characteristics. For example, carbon tetrachloride, CCl4, is very stable in the presence of water, but silicon tetrachloride, SiCl4, reacts quickly with water. The unbalanced equation for this reaction is SiCl4 + H2O → Si(OH)4 + HCl Balance this equation. Write a conversion factor that could be used to convert between moles of SiCl4 and moles of H2O. How many moles of SiCl4 react with 24 moles of water? Write a conversion factor that could be used to convert between moles of Si(OH)4 and moles of water. How many moles of Si(OH)4 form when 4.01 moles of H2O react with an excess of SiCl4?

Determine the structures of the molecules described in the following problems. Also note, in the combustion of N containing compounds, N2(g) is made. Using your understanding of bond enthalpies, predict the enthalpy change associated with the conversion of the amino acid lysine to cadaverine (and any other by-products of the reaction). You will need to have a balanced chemical reaction to do this. Assume that the reaction occurs in the gas phase.
(a) Find the angle u between adjacent nearest-neighbor bonds in the silicon lattice. Recall that each silicon atom is bonded to four of its nearest neighbors.The four neighbors form a regular tetrahedron— a pyramid whose sides and base are equilateral triangles. (b) Find the bond length, given that the atoms at the corners of the tetrahedron are 388 pm apart.
