(a)

Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation : The chiral TCA-cycle intermediates need to be identified. The intermediate with greatest number of chiral centers and cis-trans isomerism needs to be determined.

Concept Introduction : A chiral carbon atom is the carbon atom which is bonded with four different atoms or group of atoms. The geometrical isomers are due to the presence of C=C bond in the molecule in which the double bonded carbon atoms must be bonded with two different groups. Oxidation and decarboxylation are two most important chemical reactions.

(b)

Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation : The type of chemical reaction taking place in step 1 to 3 needs to be determined.

Concept Introduction : A chiral carbon atom is the carbon atom which is bonded with four different atoms or group of atoms. The geometrical isomers are due to the presence of C=C bond in the molecule in which the double bonded carbon atoms must be bonded with two different groups. Oxidation and decarboxylation are two most important chemical reactions.

(c)

Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation : The product of hydration of aconitic acid needs to be determined if it follows Markovnikov’s rule.

Concept Introduction : A chiral carbon atom is the carbon atom which is bonded with four different atoms or group of atoms. The geometrical isomers are due to the presence of C=C bond in the molecule in which the double bonded carbon atoms must be bonded with two different groups. Oxidation and decarboxylation are two most important chemical reactions.

(d)

Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation : The type of reactions taking place in step 4 to 8 needs to be determined.

Concept Introduction : A chiral carbon atom is the carbon atom which is bonded with four different atoms or group of atoms. The geometrical isomers are due to the presence of C=C bond in the molecule in which the double bonded carbon atoms must be bonded with two different groups. Oxidation and decarboxylation are two most important chemical reactions.

(e)

Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation : This is to be shown that step 5 involves oxidation.

Concept Introduction : A chiral carbon atom is the carbon atom which is bonded with four different atoms or group of atoms. The geometrical isomers are due to the presence of C=C bond in the molecule in which the double bonded carbon atoms must be bonded with two different groups. Oxidation and decarboxylation are two most important chemical reactions.

(f)

Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation : This is given that reaction 4 is also classified as a decarboxylation. Whether this decarboxylation involves oxidation reaction or not needs to be determined.

Concept Introduction : A chiral carbon atom is the carbon atom which is bonded with four different atoms or group of atoms. The geometrical isomers are due to the presence of C=C bond in the molecule in which the double bonded carbon atoms must be bonded with two different groups. Oxidation and decarboxylation are two most important chemical reactions.

An essential part of the experimental design process is to select appropriate dependent and independent variables. True False
10.00 g of Compound X with molecular formula C₂Hg are burned in a constant-pressure calorimeter containing 40.00 kg of water at 25 °C. The temperature of the water is observed to rise by 2.604 °C. (You may assume all the heat released by the reaction is absorbed by the water, and none by the calorimeter itself.) Calculate the standard heat of formation of Compound X at 25 °C. Be sure your answer has a unit symbol, if necessary, and round it to the correct number of significant digits.
need help not sure what am doing wrong step by step please answer is 971A During the lecture, we calculated the Debye length at physiological salt concentrations and temperature, i.e. at an ionic strength of 150 mM (i.e. 0.150 mol/l) and a temperature of T=310 K. We predicted that electrostatic interactions are effectively screened beyond distances of 8.1 Å in solutions with a physiological salt concentration. What is the Debye length in a sample of distilled water with an ionic strength of 10.0 µM (i.e. 1.00 * 10-5 mol/l)? Assume room temperature, i.e. T= 298 K, and provide your answer as a numerical expression with 3 significant figures in Å (1 Å = 10-10 m).
