Monosaccharide also called SIMPLE SUGAR‚ any of the basic compounds that serve as the building blocks of carbohydrates. Monosaccharides are polyhydroxy aldehydes or ketones; that is‚ they are molecules with more than one hydroxyl group (-OH)‚ and a carbonyl group (C=O) either at the terminal carbon atom (aldose) or at the second carbon atom (ketose). The carbonyl group combines in aqueous solution with one hydroxyl group to form a cyclic compound (hemi-acetal or hemi-ketal). Monosaccharides are

rate of alcoholic fermentation using various carbohydrates. Hypothesis: If the yeast is placed in 5% glucose or sucrose solutions‚ then carbon dioxide production will increase over time. If boiled yeast is placed in a 5% sucrose solution‚ then carbon dioxide production will remain constant. Variables Independent variable: Carbohydrate solutions (5% solutions of glucose and sucrose) and boiled yeast Dependent variable: Rate of reaction of alcoholic fermentation as calculated by size of CO2 bubble

molecules from an area of high concentration of sucrose solution to an area of lower concentration of sucrose solution‚ through a selectively permeable membrane. The water molecules move down a concentration gradient in osmosis. Two diagrams of osmosis are shown in figures 1 and 2. Figure 1 shows the diffusion of water molecules through a selectively permeable membrane from an area of highly concentrated sucrose solution to an area of lower concentrated sucrose solution. Figure 2 shows a concentration gradient

glucose‚ sucrose‚ and starch. It was hypothesized that glucose‚ sucrose‚ then starch would all be used to produce energy during fermentation. Being that glucose is a simple sugar‚ or monosaccharide‚ we predicted that glucose would be fermented most quickly. This hypothesis was made based on the idea that glucose is the cell ’s main source of energy in aerobic cellular respiration. The first step of cellular respiration is glycolysis which breaks down glucose for energy. We predicted that Sucrose would

sodium carbonate as your substance. Of all the substances‚ only two were covalent and two were ionic. The ionic substances‚ sodium chloride‚ sodium carbonate‚ and salicylic acid‚ came close to the description you requested. The covalent substances‚ sucrose and salicylic acid‚ did not match the descriptions. The best substance would definitely be sodium carbonate‚ since it passed all the tests. Sodium carbonate had a high melting point‚ so it will be able to last for a long time in the kiln fire. It

substrate which has the highest cellulose pellicle yield was using the ratio of CSL medium to coconut water at was 4:1(v/v). To the above medium‚ supplements consisted of sucrose (5%)‚ corn steep liquor (4%)‚ and ammonium acetate (3.75%). In fact‚ 7% sucrose gave the best yield; followed by 5% sucrose but the contribution of adding 7% sucrose is lower than that of 5%. The pH of medium was adjusted to initial pH 4.0‚ and incubated at 30℃ for 10 days; highest yield of cellulose pellicle was obtained. The cellulose

Aim The aim is to find the concentration (mole/dm3 (M)) of solute in a potato cell by using the process of osmosis and different concentrations of sucrose solution. Background information Osmosis is diffusion of water across a partially permeable membrane. It moves from a solution with less solute concentration (high water potential) to a solution with more solute concentration (low water potential). The one with a high water concentration is called a hypotonic solution and the low water concentration
