The Structure of Sugar
- Classify the molecule fully (ex. Primary amine, aliphatic)
- From knowledge of linkages, identify the structures (names are NOT important) of the parent molecules that formed sucrose.
- Describe the 3 dimensional shape of the central atoms of sugar using VSEPR. Include the bond angles
- Show the hybridization filling diagram for the bonds around one of the carbon atoms and one of the oxygen atoms in the molecule
- Determine the reaction for the complete combustion of sugar
- Assign oxidation numbers to determine if this process is redox
- make a conclusion and justify it
