Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation:

The distinguishing test for the given compounds is to be determined.

Concept Introduction:

▸ The pyranoses are six-membered monosaccharide ring structures. The name signifies heterocycle pyran+ose.

▸ Pyranoses are the hemiacetals having ring structures of the D(+)Glucose while glucopyranosides are the carbohydrate acetals called glycosides.

▸ Benedict’s test is a typical chemical method used to oxidize aldoses and ketoses. This particular test can be used as a colorimetric analysis tool and a positive or negative test can help in the distinction of different types of carbohydrates. Tollen’s reagent, which is composed of silver nitrate and ammonia can also selectively oxidize aldehyde and ketone groups present in the carbohydrates. The presence or absence of the oxidized product serves as the basis for the determination of the chemical nature of the compound.

110. Compare the pressures given by (a) the ideal gas law, (b) the van der Waals equation, and (c) the Redlic-Kwong equation for propane at 400 K and p = 10.62 mol dm³. The van der Waals parameters for propane are a = 9.3919 dm6 bar mol-2 and b = 0.090494 dm³ mol−1. The Redlich-Kwong parameters are A = 183.02 dm bar mol-2 and B = 0.062723 dm³ mol-1. The experimental value is 400 bar.
Research in surface science is carried out using stainless steel ultra-high vacuum chambers with pressures as low as 10-12 torr.  How many molecules are there in a 1.00 cm3 volume at this pressure and at a temperature of 300 K?  For comparison, calculate the number of molecules in a 1.00 cm3 volume at atmospheric pressure and room temperature.  In outer space the pressure is approximately 1.3 x 10-11 Pa and the temperature is approximately 2.7 K (determined using the blackbody radiation of the universe).  How many molecules would you expect find in 1.00 cm3 of outer space?
