1. The answer is d. 180 grams of glucose
The molecular formula of glucose C6H1206. It shows that six-carbon, 12 hydrogen, and 6 oxygen atoms.
Molar masses are C= 12 g/mol
H=1 g/mol
O=16g/mol
So 1 mole of glucose C6H1206 = (6x12) + (12x1)+ (6x16)
=72+12+96
=180 g.
2. The answer is d. None of the above.
pH is the negative log of hydrogen ion concentration.
pH =−log[H+]
if pH=2, Antilog 0.18 = 1.5
[H+]=10−2=10−2+0.18=100.18×10−2=1.513×10−2
Hydrogen ion concentration will be [H+] = 1.5×10-2M
= 0.015M
=0.02M.
3. The answer is c. amino
The amino group is responsible for an organic molecule to behave like a base.
Amino groups are nitrogen-containing organic bases. Amines act as a base in aqueous solution and are soluble in dilute acids. Any functional group with an unshared pair of electrons acts as a Lewis base. Phosphate is negatively charged and do not need protons. Acids don’t want protons and it is donated. A base is a proton acceptor by Bronsted-Lowry definition. A carbonyl which contains hydrogens on its alpha carbons is more acidic and not basic.
