Carbohydrates
Carbohydrates are the organic compounds that are obtained in foods and living matters in the shape of sugars, cellulose, and starch. The general formula of carbohydrates is Cn(H2O)2. The ratio of H and O present in carbohydrates is identical to water.
Starch
Starch is a polysaccharide carbohydrate that belongs to the category of polysaccharide carbohydrates.
Mutarotation
The rotation of a particular structure of the chiral compound because of the epimerization is called mutarotation. It is the repercussion of the ring chain tautomerism. In terms of glucose, this can be defined as the modification in the equilibrium of th…
L Sugar
A chemical compound that is represented with a molecular formula C6H12O6 is called L-(-) sugar. At the carbon’s 5th position, the hydroxyl group is placed to the compound’s left and therefore the sugar is represented as L(-)-sugar. It is capable of rotat…

Chapter 22, Problem 93QGW
Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation: Compare and contrast corn-starch with cotton balls, which are made of almost pure cellulose. Involve at least three ways in which they are similar and three ways in which they are different. Discuss aspects you have observed in daily life and aspects on the molecular scale.

Concept Introduction:

Cornstarch, also known as corn flour, is a carbohydrate that is extracted from the endosperm of corn. It has only carbohydrate and no protein and hence is a gluten-free product. Cotton balls are extracted from cotton plant. Their fibers are used to make different clothes and in various other textile industries.
