The α form of the tetrahydrate has density 1.33 g/cm 3. It melts congruously at 7.55 °C into a liquid with 35.7% NaOH and density 1.392 g/cm 3 , and therefore floats on it like ice on water. However, at about 4.9 °C it may instead melt incongruously into a mixture of solid NaOH·3.5H 2 O and a liquid solution.
Lactose is a disaccharide found in animal milk. It consists of a molecule of D-galactose and a molecule of D-glucose bonded by beta-1-4 glycosidic linkage.. A carbohydrate (/ ˌ k ɑːr b oʊ ˈ h aɪ d r eɪ t /) is a biomolecule consisting of carbon (C), hydrogen (H) and oxygen (O) atoms, usually with a hydrogen–oxygen atom ratio of 2:1 (as in water) and thus with the empirical formula C m ...
Hydrochloric acid, also known as muriatic acid or spirits of salt, is an aqueous solution of hydrogen chloride (HCl). It is a colorless solution with a distinctive pungent smell.
A open-chain form of glucose makes up less than 0.02% of the glucose molecules in an aqueous solution at equilibrium. [57] The rest is one of two cyclic hemiacetal forms. In its open-chain form, the glucose molecule has an open (as opposed to cyclic) unbranched backbone of six carbon atoms, where C-1 is part of an aldehyde group H(C=O)−.
This relationship between dietary fats and insulin resistance is presumed secondary to the relationship between insulin resistance and inflammation, which is partially modulated by dietary fat ratios (omega−3/6/9) with both omega−3 and −9 thought to be anti-inflammatory, and omega−6 pro-inflammatory (as well as by numerous other dietary ...
The Caribbean (/ ˌ k ær ɪ ˈ b iː ən, k ə ˈ r ɪ b i ən / KARR-ib-EE-ən, kə-RIB-ee-ən, locally / ˈ k ær ɪ b i æ n / KARR-ib-ee-an; [4] Spanish: el Caribe; French: les Caraïbes; Dutch: de Caraïben), is a subregion in the middle of the Americas centered around the Caribbean Sea in the North Atlantic Ocean.
[23] [32] [33] In the United States, methamphetamine's levorotary form is available in some over-the-counter (OTC) nasal decongestant products. [ 23 ] [ note 4 ] Although the pharmaceutical name "methamphetamine hydrochloride" may suggest a racemic mixture , Desoxyn contains enantiopure dextromethamphetamine, which is a more potent stimulant ...
Raleigh's population in 2000 was evenly distributed with 20.9% below the age of 18, 15.9% aged 18 to 24, 36.6% from 25 to 44, and 18.4% from 45 to 64. An estimated 8.3% of the population was 65 years of age or older, and the median age was 31 years.
