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.

" is The structure of the bicarbonate (hydrogen carbonate) ion, HCO3-, HCO3 best described as a hybrid of several contributing resonance forms, two of which are shown here. HO :0: :Ö: HO + Bicarbonate is crucial for the control of body pH (for example, blood pH: 7.4). A more self-indulgent use is in baking soda, where it serves as a source of CO2 CO₂ 2 gas, which gives bread and pastry their fluffy constituency. (i) Draw at least one additional resonance form. = (ii) Using curved "electron-pushing" arrows, show how these Lewis structures may be interconverted by movement of electron pairs. (iii) Determine which form or forms will be the major contributor(s) to the real structure of bicarbonate, explaining your answer on the basis of the criteria in Section 1-5.
