Nice going One-ball..... You know your comma's and the proper of use of its...I stand corrected..I would guess you lost that ball in the Typewriter Wars of the 60's and 70's. I recognize starting a sentence with "but" is not kosher, although I don't think it violates any rules and I've read well known authors who do it. When one writes (publishes) the compound glucose and shows a reaction including it, it is proper to show the formula in a way that indicates its chemical structure. Glucose in such written form should be CHO(CHOH)4CH2OH, not simply C6H12O6, unless it is identified as glucose. When referring to reacting glucose, one is referring to the chemical reaction of glucose and some other chemical compound. As for spilling fruit juice on your paper, the sugar you would have spilled is fructose, another form of glucose.....same stoichiometric ratios of C,H, and O, but different chemical compounds.
