CHEM 305: CHEM 305

Explore the fascinating discovery of a glucose polymer with alternating glycosidic linkages. We'll visualize its Haworth projection and investigate its potential role in organisms, pondering whether it primarily serves a structural or energy storage function. Additionally, we'll discuss which types of organisms might utilize this unique polysaccharide as a potential food source.

This discussion revolves around the classification of chemical bonds as ionic, polar covalent, or covalent based on the electronegativity difference between the atoms involved. The general criteria for this classification are explained: a difference greater than 1.7 indicates an ionic bond, between 0.5 and 1.7 signifies a polar covalent bond, and less than 0.5 designates a covalent bond. It then applies these criteria to four specific examples, including the CC bond in ethane (H?CCH?), the KI bo
