Chapter 5, Problem 57P

(a)

Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation:The complete IUPAC name of indicated enantiomer should be written as well as numbers of possible stereoisomeric products formed in the chlorination with 1 mol Cl2 with S-1,3-dichloropentane at C3 should be determined and whether they are formed in equal or unequal amounts should be indicated along with S and R designation at the stereocenter.

Concept introduction: Halogenation products are governed by the achirality or already present stereocenter in the molecule.

If the halogenation occurs at the chiral center of the substrate it results in a racemic mixture. This is attributed to formation of achiral radical intermediate that can be attacked equally from the top face or bottom face. Thus two enantiomers R and S are formed in equal amount that makes the overall mixture optically inactive.

If the halogenation occurs at one of the two chiral centers of the substrate it results in change in absolute configuration at only one of the stereocenter and thus diastereoisomer result. These diastereomers are formed in unequal amounts.

A small artisanal cheesemaker is testing the acidity of their milk before it coagulates. During fermentation, bacteria produce lactic acid (K₁ = 1.4 x 104), a weak acid that helps to curdle the milk and develop flavor. The cheesemaker has measured that the developing mixture contains lactic acid at an initial concentration of 0.025 M. Your task is to calculate the pH of this mixture and determine whether it meets the required acidity for proper cheese development. To achieve the best flavor, texture and reduce/control microbial growth, the pH range needs to be between pH 4.6 and 5.0. Assumptions: Lactic acid is a monoprotic acid H H :0:0: H-C-C H :0: O-H Figure 1: Lewis Structure for Lactic Acid For simplicity, you can use the generic formula HA to represent the acid You can assume lactic acid dissociation is in water as milk is mostly water. Temperature is 25°C 1. Write the K, expression for the dissociation of lactic acid in the space provided. Do not forget to include state symbols.…
