Question

Transcribed Image Text:4.86 When dissolved in water, glucose (corn sugar) and
fructose (fruit sugar) exist in equilibrium as follows:
fructose glucose
A chemist prepared a 0.244 M fructose solution at
25°C. At equilibrium, it was found that its concen-
tration had decreased to 0.113 M. (a) Calculate the
equilibrium constant for the reaction. (b) At equilib-
rium, what percentage of fructose was converted to
glucose?
