(a)

Interpretation Introduction

To determine: The products obtained from the reaction between (+)-glyceraldehyde and HCN.

Interpretation: The products obtained from the reaction between (+)-glyceraldehyde and HCN are to be stated.

Concept introduction: Nucleophilic addition takes place when hydrogen cyanide reacts with aldehyde or ketones. Hydrogen cyanide attacks the carbonyl group of aldehydes and ketones to form cyanohydrin. It undergoes acidic hydrolysis to give carboxylic acid.

(b)

Interpretation Introduction

To determine: The relationship between the products and the method of their separation.

Interpretation: The relationship between the products and the method of their separation are to be stated.

Concept introduction: Nucleophilic addition takes place when hydrogen cyanide reacts with aldehyde or ketones. Hydrogen cyanide attacks the carbonyl group of aldehydes and ketones to form cyanohydrin. It undergoes acidic hydrolysis to give carboxylic acid.

(c)

Interpretation Introduction

To determine: If the products are optically active or not with an explanation.

Interpretation: The validation of the fact that products are optically active is to be stated with an explanation.
