How long does it take to hydrolyze 93 percent sucrose?
The hydrolysis of sucrose can vary in time depending on the conditions, such as temperature and pH, but typically it can take a few hours to completely hydrolyze 93 percent of sucrose. The process involves breaking down the sucrose molecule into its components, glucose and fructose, with the help of an enzyme like invertase.
Can Seliwanoff's test be used to distinguish sucrose from fructose?
Yes, fructose is a ketose, for which Seliwanoff's test is most sensitive. Sucrose is neither entirely a ketose nor an aldose, but is a mixture of both. It will react, but more slowly, producing a much lighter pinkish color.
What is a chemical example of a hydrolysis?
Let's say you have ethanoyl chloride and you add water. The oxygen atom in the molecule will attach to the carbonyl carbon, displacing two electrons from the double bond to oxygen, giving it a negative charge. The oxygen will then throw those two electrons back down to form a double bond and kick out the chlorine. The chlorine(-) will then take one of the hydrogens off of the H20 molecule attached to the original carbonyl carbon, leaving the newly bound oxygen with no formal charge. You will then have hydrolyzed ethanoyl chloride (an acid chloride), and formed ethanoic acid (a carboxylic acid) + HCl. See Attached image for mechanism: http://tinypic.com/r/os92x0/5
How many atoms does one molecule of table sugar have?
Table sugar has the chemical name and formula of sucrose (C12H22O11). For every one mole of sucrose, 12 moles of carbon are contained. In order to calculate moles you take 12 multiplied by Avogadro's number of 6.0221413 x 10^23. That would equal 7.2x10^24 atoms of carbon per molecule of sucrose.
The formula for sucrose is C12H22O11. Figure the molar mass of sucrose to the nearest gram?
For this you need the atomic (molecular) mass of C12H22O11. Take the number of moles and multiply it by the atomic mass. Divide by one mole for units to cancel. C12H22O11= 342 grams.105 moles C12H22O11 × (342 grams)= 35.9 grams C12H22O11
During starch digestion where does hydrolysis take place Please help me?
Hydrolysis of starch starts in our buccal cavity through action of enzyme salivary amylase which convert starch in to Maltose +Isomaltose and limitdextrines as disaccharides. further digestion of srarch take place in small intestine through action of amylase presentr in secretions of pancreatic and intestinal glands of our alimentry canal.
HOW DO THE RESULTS OF THE IODINE TEST INDICATED THAT HYDROLYSIS OF STARCH OCCURRED?
An iodine solution turns a purplish-black if it comes into contact with the presence of a starch molecule. This reaction can take place at very minute concentrations of starch.
If iodine were not available how would you determine whether starch hydrolysis occurred?
You could use iodine in a starch hydrolysis test to detect the presence of starch. Without iodine, alternative methods such as using enzymatic assays to directly measure the breakdown products of starch hydrolysis could be employed. Additionally, techniques like TLC or HPLC could be used to analyze the carbohydrate composition before and after the hydrolysis process.

Why does starch take longer to digest than sugar?
The reason for this is that the acid is more rapid in it's chemical reactions, this than enables the starch to hydrolise starch more effectivly that the enzyme. As you may have learned the enzyme is a catalyst and does speed up chemical reactions but not like an acid does.
How many carbohydrates does it take to make one starch?
Starch is a carb.
How can you tell how quickly the saliva digests the starch?
Starch doesn't digest saliva. The enzyme in saliva digests starch.
Why is fructose used?
Fructose as an ingredient or a 'sugar' replacement in your coffee or tea is normally consumed by diabetic sufferers. This is because it has a lower glycaemic index than sucrose (regular sugar). This means that when fructose is consumed the body takes longer to metabolise it into, its main energy source, glucose. So therefore, the glucose formed from fructose is absorbed into the blood stream much slower than what would be seen for sucrose. This is due to the different formations and shapes of the fructose and sucrose. So a more complex shape (fructose) would take longer to breakdown into the shape of glucose and the simpler shape (sucrose) would breakdown faster to glucose.
Can Seliwanoff's test be used to distinguish sucrose from fructose?
Yes, fructose is a ketose, for which Seliwanoff's test is most sensitive. Sucrose is neither entirely a ketose nor an aldose, but is a mixture of both. It will react, but more slowly, producing a much lighter pinkish color.
Where does the digestion of starch not take place?
the intestine
How many minutes will it take for the sucrose concentration to drop to 0.30M?
77 minutes
How much time is taken by salivary amylase to digest starch at 37 celsius?
Salivary amylase typically takes around 30 minutes to begin breaking down starch into maltose at 37 degrees Celsius. However, complete digestion of starch by salivary amylase may take longer and depends on various factors such as the concentration of the enzyme and starch, pH levels, and other digestive processes that occur in the gastrointestinal tract.
