Question
Chapter 8, Problem 79AP
Interpretation Introduction
Interpretation:
One reason must be provided for why long-lived oxidation catalyst is difficult to develop.
Concept introduction:
- Oxidation catalysts are those which help in oxidizing different materials.
- The catalyst is reduced.
Solution:
As there is a high chance of reaction of the catalyst with the oxygen of air so it’s difficult to develop an oxidation catalyst which is long-lived.

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.
