Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation:

The phenomenon of mutarotation with reference to carbohydrates has to be explained.  The detection of mutarotation has to be explained.

Concept Introduction:

When carbohydrates are dissolved in water, the specific rotation of the anomeric forms are interconverted (α-form to β-form) and attains equilibrium.  This interconversion of the anomers is said to be mutarotation.

In natural rubber or polyisoprene, the trans isomer leads to a higher degree of crystallinity and density than the cis isomer of the same polymer, because(a) it is more symmetrical and regular.(b) it is less symmetrical.(c) it is irregular.
Most ceramic materials have low thermal conductivities because:(a) Electron mobility is strongly restricted due to their strong ionic-covalent bonding.(b) False, in general they are excellent thermal conductors (they are used in ovens).(c) Electron mobility is dependent on T and therefore they are poor conductors at high temperatures.(d) Electron mobility is very restricted by secondary bonds.
Resistivity and electrical conductivity.(a) In metals, resistivity decreases.(b) In metals, resistivity decreases and conductivity in semiconductors also decreases with increasing temperature.(c) With increasing temperature, resistivity in metals and conductivity in semiconductors also increases.(d) None of the above.
