Chapter 7: Carbohydrates I. Carbohydrates A. Most abundant organic molecule in nature a) 3 major classes: Monosaccharides – simple sugar – polyhydroxy aldehyde or ketone; represent individual sugar Oligosaccharides – consist of short chains of monosaccharide units joined together by covalent bonds; 2-10 strings of sugar Polysaccharides – long chains having hundreds or thousands of monosaccharide units b) Functions: Provide energy thru oxidation – glucose oxidized for energy Supply carbon

Unit 1: Introduction to Biochemistry Lesson 1-4: Key Question How many electrons does Mg2+ have? (1 mark) Mg2+ has 10 electrons. A magnesium atom has 12 electrons with 2 of the 12 being valence electrons. Therefore the atom will lose the valence electrons which are located on the outermost shell to stabilize itself (outermost shell) as atoms tend to do what it easiest. Since magnesium lost 2 electrons it becomes positive as it is giving away electrons to stabilize other atoms. Hence magnesium

drugs the difference lies in the group that is placed after the unified functional group called a penam. The penam is a characteristic feature of the Penicillin family of drugs. A penam group contains a ketone with one R group consisting of a secondary amine. This secondary amine bridges the ketone to the Beta-lactam ring that is a four membered ring with nitrogen bonded to a carbonyl group. That ring is attached to another ring that is considered a cyclopentyl-thioether that is a cyclic ether with

The Atkins Diet is a diet where you eat less carbohydrates and more fats and proteins so; your body goes into Metabolic State and starts to burn fat instead of carbohydrates. 1. Many health problems can occur including blood problems‚ vomiting‚ bad breath‚ constipation‚ kidney problems and heart attacks. The one that I will be focusing on today is the higher risk of heart attacks. According to BHF (The British Heart Foundation)‚ when they competed a study‚ they found out than an additional four

types of problems depending on which types of diabetes they have. For Type I diabetes‚ two problems may occur: ketoacidosis‚ and hyperglycemia. In ketoacidosis‚ your body produces ketones. This occurs when your blood glucose level increases too high. The productions of ketones have its unpleasant results. Ketones can cause you to vomit‚ have trouble breathing‚ become dehydrated‚ have dry itchy skin‚ and/or go into a coma. Hyperglycemia is where your blood

The Grignard Synthesis of Triphenylmethanol Abstract: Grignard synthesis of triphenylmethanol was achieved by use of the Grignard reagent phenyl magesium brominde. The organometallic grignard reagent was synthesized by use of a reflux apparatus recrystallization techniques. Once synthesized it was used in a Grignard reaction that involved nucleophilic addition to a carbonyl in order to make triphenylmethanol. The final product was solidified and recrystallized and spectral data was

My holy religion is Islam and it has lots of positive effects on my day to day life. The holy religion of Islam has 5 basic pillars‚ and each of these pillars has positive effects on life. I would further explain each pillar and its effect on life. The first pillar of Islam is reading Kalema Tayeba. By reading this Kalema and believing on its words‚ Muslims admit that there is no God except Allah and prophet Mohmmad (P.B.U.H) is the last messenger of Allah.
