Concept explainers
(a)
Interpretation:
Similarity of starch and cellulose in terms of chemical structure has to be given.
Concept introduction:
Monosaccharide is a type of sugar that is unable to hydrolyze in order to provide simpler sugar. They are crystalline and water soluble solids and have sweet taste. The general formula of monosaccharide is
Polysaccharides are made up of different monosaccharides bonded together. Plants and animals form polysaccharides to stock surplus sugar.
(b)
Interpretation:
Difference of starch and cellulose in terms of food source for human has to be given.
Concept introduction:

You will divide it into three 1.5 g portions in separate 125 mL Erlenmeyer flasks savıng some for melting point analysis. Dissolve the mixture in each flask in ~60mL of DI water by heating to boiling on a hotplate. Take the flasks off the hotplate once you have a clear solution and let them stand on the bench top for 5 mins and then allow them to cool as described below. Sample A-Let the first sample cool slowly to room temperature by letting it stand on your lab bench, with occasional stirring to promote crystallization. Sample B-Cool the second sample 1n a tap-water bath to 10-15 °C Sample C-Cool the third sample in an ice-bath to 0-2 °C Results: weight after recrystalization and melting point temp.
