Carbohydrate glucose
polyhychoxy aldehyde
30
Carbohydrate fructose
polyhydroxy ketones
31
classified on the basis of molecular size as monosaccharides, disaccharides, oligosaccharide, and polysaccharides
Classification of carbohydrates
32
carbohydrate that contains a single polyhydroxy aldehyde or polyhydroxy ketone unit.
Monosaccharide
33
Carbohydrate that contains two monosaccharide units covalently bonded to each other
Disaccharide
34
carbohydrate that contains three to ten monosaccharide units covalently bonded to each other.
Oligosacharride
35
polymetric carbohydrate,that contains many monosaccharides units covalently bonded to each other
Polysaccharides
36
the reflection of an object in a mirror.
Mirror image
37
images that coincide at all points coincide when the image are laid upon each otner.
Superimposable mirror image
38
handedness - generating carbon
chiral center
39
atom in a molecule that has four diff. groups bonded to it in a terrahedral orientation .
Chiral center
40
Molecule whose mirror image are not super imposable
Chiral molecule
41
Molecule whose mirror image are super imposable
Achiral molcule
42
isomers that have the same moleular and structural formula but differ in the orientation of atoms in space.
stereoisomers
43
molecules are nonsuperimposable mirror images
Enantiomers
44
not mirror images of each other.
Diastereomers
45
Structural isomers and stereoisomers
Isomers
46
Optical activity is the capacity of a substance to rotate the plane polarized light posing throughit.
Optical Isomerism
47
Dextrorotatory (d) or (t)
Clockwise direction
48
Levorotatory (l) or (-)
counter clockwise direction
49
Levorotatory (l) or (-)
counter clockwise direction
50
rotate polarized ligut clock-wise or counter clockwise through certain angle
Chiral compounds
51
it two monosaccharides differ from elo in their configuration around a single spentic cartoon (other than anomers) atom
Epimerism
52
Isomers obtained from the change of position of hydroxyl group attacted to the anomeric carbon eg. a & B glucose and Z anomers
Anomerism
53
a & B fructose and Z anomers
Anomerism
54
a & B fructose and Z anomers
Anomerism
55
the charge in the specific optical rotation by the inter conversion of to a A & B forms of D glucose to an equilibrium mixture
Mutarotation
