(a)
Interpretation: The more highly oxidized compound is to be identified.
Concept Introduction: In the process of oxidation, oxygen or any other electronegative element is added, and hydrogen or another electropositive element is removed. The process of an atom or ion losing one or more electrons is known as oxidation, according to the electronic notion.

Answer to Problem 110A
Ethanal is more highly oxidized compound.
Explanation of Solution
The compound that is highly oxidized can be detected with the help of its structure.
The compound that has a low number of hydrogen atoms has the tendency to get more oxidized.
The structure of ethanol and ethanal is given below:
In ethanol, there are six hydrogen atoms.
In ethanal, there are four hydrogen atoms.
Since ethanal has few number of hydrogen atoms, it is highly oxidized.

- b) Certain cyclic compounds are known to be conformationally similar to carbohydrates, although they are not themselves carbohydrates. One example is Compound C shown below, which could be imagined as adopting four possible conformations. In reality, however, only one of these is particularly stable. Circle the conformation you expect to be the most stable, and provide an explanation to justify your choice. For your explanation to be both convincing and correct, it must contain not only words, but also "cartoon" orbital drawings contrasting the four structures.
