(a)

Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation:

Structure of an aldotetrose has to be drawn.

Concept Introduction:

Simplest carbohydrates are known as monosaccharides.  They contain three to six carbons generally in a chain form with a carbonyl group present in the terminal or the adjacent carbon atom from the terminal.  Monosaccharides that have the carbonyl group at the terminal carbon atom C1 are known as aldoses and the monosaccharides that have the carbonyl group on the adjacent carbon atom C2 are known as ketoses.

The number of carbon atoms present in the chain characterize the monosaccharide.  They are given below.

  • Carbon chain with three carbon atoms is triose.
  • Carbon chain with four carbon atoms is tetrose.
  • Carbon chain with five carbon atoms is as pentose.
  • Carbon chain with six carbon atoms is as hexose.

Suppose 1.76 g of magnesium acetate (Mg (CH3CO2)2) are dissolved in 140. mL of water. Find the composition of the resulting electrolyte solution. In particular, list the chemical symbols (including any charge) of each dissolved ion in the table below. List only one ion per row. mEq Then, calculate the concentration of each ion in dwrite the concentration in the second column of each row. Be sure you round your answers to the L correct number of significant digits. ion Add Row mEq L x 5
A pdf file of your hand drawn, stepwise mechanisms for the reactions. For each reaction in the assignment, you must write each mechanism three times (there are 10 reactions, so 30 mechanisms). (A) do the work on a tablet and save as a pdf., it is expected to write each mechanism out and NOT copy and paste the mechanism after writing it just once. Everything should be drawn out stepwise  and  every bond that is formed and broken in the process of the reaction, and is expected to see all relevant lone pair electrons and curved arrows.
