(a)
Interpretation:
Interpret the reason for the use of cobalt-57 for studying body’s requirement of vitamin B12.
Concept Introduction:
Majorly 99% of body mass composed of 6 elements such as oxygen, carbon, hydrogen, nitrogen, calcium and phosphorus while the 5 elements are present in 0.85 % of body.
The elements are required for proper functioning of body as some are requried as catalyst or some are required as oxidasing or reducing agent.

- Q5: Label each chiral carbon in the following molecules as R or S. Make sure the stereocenter to which each of your R/S assignments belong is perfectly clear to the grader. (8pts) R OCH 3 CI H S 2pts for each R/S HO R H !!! I OH CI HN CI R Harrow_forwardCalculate the proton and carbon chemical shifts for this structurearrow_forwardA. B. b. Now consider the two bicyclic molecules A. and B. Note that A. is a dianion and B. is a neutral molecule. One of these molecules is a highly reactive compound first characterized in frozen noble gas matrices, that self-reacts rapidly at temperatures above liquid nitrogen temperature. The other compound was isolated at room temperature in the early 1960s, and is a stable ligand used in organometallic chemistry. Which molecule is the more stable molecule, and why?arrow_forward
