Suppose you have a beaker of sugar and a beaker of salt. They are unlabeled and the white crystals look identical. Your assignment is to identify each one. Tasting would make identification easy, but you should never taste anything in a science lab. Instead, you can use scientific knowledge and investigation to help you identify each substance. Substance Formula Melting Point Conductivity
Table salt NaCl ? ?
Table sugar C12H22O11 ? ?

Examine the chemical formulas for salt and sugar given in the table. What do they tell you about what type of bonding is present in each compound?
A. Both molecules contain ionic bonds.
B. Both molecules contain covalent bonds.
C. NaCl contains a covalent bond, and C12H22O11 contains ionic bonds.
D. NaCl contains an ionic bond, and C12H22O11 contains covalent bonds.

On a backpacking trip, kenny hikes all day at a steady pace, covering 30 kilometers and burning 4000 calories. at the school track, janelle runs the 100-meter sprint in 13.5 seconds, burning 10 calories. afterward, janelle’s leg muscles are aching and she is breathing hard, while kenny maintains normal breathing all day, even though he burns 400 times more calories than janelle. which two statements offer the best explanation for this phenomenon? a. if the aerobic pathway—cellular respiration—cannot meet the energy demand, then the anaerobic pathway—lactic acid fermentation—starts up, resulting in lactic acid buildup and "oxygen debt." b. aerobic cellular respiration produces more energy, but its use is limited because of lactic acid buildup in the muscles and the resulting "oxygen debt." c. after about 90 seconds of intense exercise, the muscles become depleted of oxygen, and anaerobic respiration can no longer function to produce atp, resulting in "oxygen debt." d. the rate of energy demand determines how the muscles will obtain energy, either from cellular respiration or from lactic acid fermentation if not enough oxygen is present.
