Concept explainers
(a)
Interpretation: The total number of forms that exist for maltose in aqueous solution has to be predicted.
Concept introduction: Maltose is a disaccharide and it is also known as malt sugar. It is commonly found in baby foods and malted milk. Two glucose units are present in maltose joined together by
(b)
Interpretation: The total number of forms that exist for cellobiose in aqueous solution has to be predicted.
Concept introduction: Like maltose, cellobiose is a disaccharide and it contains two monosaccharide units of D-glucose joined together by
(c)
Interpretation: The total number of forms that exist for lactose in aqueous solution has to be predicted.
Concept introduction: Lactose is a disaccharide and it contains two monosaccharide units, D-galactose and D-glucose which are joined together by
(d)
Interpretation: The total number of forms that exist for sucrose in aqueous solution has to be predicted.
Concept introduction: Sucrose is a disaccharide and it contains two monosaccharide units, Fructose and Glucose. These monosaccharide units are joined together by

- A mixture of C7H12O2, C9H9OCl, biphenyl and acetone was put together in a gas chromatography tube. Please decide from the GC resutls which correspond to the peak for C7,C9 and biphenyl and explain the reasoning based on GC results. Eliminate unnecessary peaks from Gas Chromatography results.arrow_forwardIs the molecule chiral, meso, or achiral? CI .CH3 H₂C CIarrow_forwardPLEASE HELP ! URGENT!arrow_forward
