Any sugar that man has discovered has two configurations(Enantiomers). One is called the "Dextro" (D) confermation which when checking its optical activity, rotates light clockwise. The other form is called "Levo" (L) which when checking its optical activity rotates the light anti-clockwise. This is so important in because mainly the enzymes in our body are Levo (Meaning that they only act on "Levo" substrates) so if you give the patient Dextro substrate it wont be hydrolyzed by the enzyme.
NB:Enantiomers mean that the 2 compounds (Dextro and Levo compounds) are "mirror image" to each other.
What else can I help you with?
A sugar solution contains 26g of sugar in 50 L of solution. What is the concentration in g L?
The concentration of sugar in the solution is 0.52 g/L.
What is the form of sugar?
glucose
Melting sugar is what kind of change?
Melting sugar is a physical change because it does not change the chemical composition of sugar. It only transforms sugar from a solid form to a liquid form by increasing its temperature.
Is table sugar a form of simple sugar?
Yes, and as such, should be eaten sparingly.
What do you change when you heat sugar to turn into caramel?
You change the form of the sugar into caramel ?
A sugar solution contains 26g of sugar in 50 L of solution. What is the concentration in g L?
The concentration of sugar in the solution is 0.52 g/L.
Is glycogen a form of sugar?
a storage form of sugar
Sugar is a form of what in a plant?

How much sugar is in l and p?
A 12 oz can of L&P soda contains about 39 grams of sugar.
What is the plural form of the word sugar?
The singular and plural forms of sugar is sugar.
What is the combining form meaning for sugar?
The combining form for sugar is "glyc/o".
What do you understand by D and L forms of mono saccharides?
D and L forms of monosaccharides refer to the configuration of the highest-numbered chiral carbon in a sugar molecule. In the D form, the hydroxyl group on the highest-numbered chiral carbon is on the right side, while in the L form, it is on the left side. The designation of D or L does not indicate the direction of optical rotation.
How sugar originate?
Sugar is grown, either in the form of sugar cane, or sugar beets.
What is the sugar content in red wines?
Depends. Most still red wines (Cabernet, Merlot, etc.) have 0 grams of sugar per liter (g/l). However, fortified red wines (dessert wines, port, etc.) have residual sugar, from 110g/l to 220g/l. In comparison, most grocery store Riesling has about 10g/l of sugar.
How many liters of water do you need to make 2 L of saturated sugar water having a concentration of 0.6 mole per liter?
To make 2 L of saturated sugar water with a concentration of 0.6 mol/L, you would need 1.2 moles of sugar in total. Since the concentration of the solution is the same as the concentration of sugar, you will need to dissolve 1.2 moles of sugar in 2 L of water.
What do you meant by sugar pucker?
Sugar is added to nucleotides in DNA formation. How the sugar binds in the helix formation determines the tightness of the helix, so it will be A form or B form. A form is more condensed and has the feature of sugar pucker.
What is standard sugar and reference sugar?
All sugars are derived from a reference sugar and all the D and L forms are referred to it.
