The most serious mistake is 17.

Then look also at 5, 14, 15.

Needs understanding, no use we tell you the answers. :smile:

For 8 I'll give you that you can burn or oxidise glucose.
 
  • #3
Also 4 & 6 are wrong.

I have problem with 8 & 16.

8 - as long as we don't know what is the reaction in question, there is more than one correct answer.

16 is ambiguous to me.

I'm pretty sure that 16 is correct.
 
  • #5

5. C
14.A
4.A
6.C
 
  • #10
I've no idea how you would answer question 8 as there is no chemical reaction to reference. I hope your teacher/prof had it somewhere else on the homewrok sheet.
 
  • #11
I will definitely bring it up in class tomorrow but that's just the question itself nothing else but i'll ask and put up what she said

okay so it was my fault I never put the chemical up but I know how it works now basically which ever way the arrow is pointing that is the reactant
