(a)

Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation:

The energy of swimming fish is a potential or kinetic energy has to be given.

Concept Introduction:

Potential energy:

  • Potential energy is the stored energy in an object or system because of its position.
  • Potential energy is not relative to the environment of an object.
  • Potential energy cannot be transferred.
  • Example: water at the top of a waterfall.

Kinetic energy:

  • The energy of a body or system with respect to the motion of the body or of the particles in the system.
  • Kinetic energy of an object is relative to other moving and stationary objects in its immediate environment.
  • Kinetic energy can be transferred from one moving object to another.
  • Example: water flow.

2. Consider the data below to answer the following questions. Cyanohydrins are important intermediates in the synthesis of α-hydroxycarboxylic acids from ketones and aldehydes. The nitrile functional group can be hydrolyzed by aqueous acid to yield a carboxylic acid. Nitriles can also be hydrolyzed to carboxylic acids using aqueous base. Unfortunately, when a cyanohydrin is treated with aqueous base the original carbonyl compound is isolated. OH CH-COOH 0 HO CN C H30* C. H H HC N NaOH H₂O C=O 0 cyanohydrin H + NaCN + H₂O
