Chemistry Questions

Ionic bonding is the complete transfer of valence electron(s) between atoms. It is a type of chemical bond that generates two oppositely charged ions. In ionic bonds, the metal loses electrons to become a positively charged cation, whereas the nonmetal accepts those electrons to become a negatively charged anion.

Hence, when Ionic bonds are formed metallic atoms tend to lose electrons and become positive ions

Disaccharides are formed when two monosaccharides join together by the dehydration synthesis reaction resulting in a glycosidic bond between the two monosaccharide molecules. The reaction produces water as a side product.

A solution is a homogeneous type of mixture of two or more substances.

A solution has two parts::

1. A solute and

2. A solvent.

The solute is the substance that dissolves, and the solvent is the majority of the solution.

Glycolysis is the chemical process that converts glucose C₆H₁₂O₆, into Pyruvate, CH₃COCOO− + H⁺.

• It represents the first stage in the chemical oxidation of glucose by a cell.

• The free energy released in this process is used to form the high-energy molecules ATP and NADH.

The given statement is True.

Ketchup is acidic, having a pH of 3.9. The acidic component, acetic acid, will react with the metal tin. This reaction will result in a metal acetate that will contaminate the ketchup.

Hence, The acetic acid in the ketchup will react with the metal tin, forming a metal acetate that will pass into the ketchup which leads to its contamination.
