Chapter 22, Problem 8PP
Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation:

The structures of the two different γlactones produced by lactonization of D-glucaric acid are to be determined.

Concept introduction:

舧 A carbohydrate is a biomolecule consisting of carbon (C), hydrogen (H) and oxygen (O) atoms, usually with a hydrogen-oxygen atom ratio of 2:1

HNO3 is an oxidizing agent.

舧 Carbohydrates are oxidized by HNO3 to give aldaric acid as a product.

舧 Aldaric acids are carbohydrates having two carboxylic acids. They are formed due to oxidation reaction of aldoses with dilute HNO3 and their general reaction can be represented as:

Biomolecules containing an ester group (OCO) as part of their ring structures are called lactones. They are derived from their respective hydroxycarboxylic acids. Formation of lactones is called lactonization. They mainly exist as λ and δ forms.

舧 Aldaric acids (obtained from oxidation of aldohexoses) produces lactones of the same order that is as:

When 15.00 mL of 3.00 M NaOH was mixed in a calorimeter with 12.80 mL of 3.00 M HCl, both initially at room temperature (22.00 C), the temperature increased to 29.30 C. The resultant salt solution had a mass of 27.80 g and a specific heat capacity of 3.74 J/Kg. What is heat capacity of the calorimeter (in J/C)? Note: The molar enthalpy of neutralization per mole of HCl is -55.84 kJ/mol.
