(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.

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.

What statements correctly describe organometallic compounds? A. They have an ionic bond because the bond is between a metal and a nonmetal B. They are transformed into hydrocarbons by reacting with CH3OH or CH3COOH C. They have a polar covalent bond which makes carbon a nucleophile and an electrophile D. They react with epoxides to give an alcohol after hydrolysis. E. They are prepared by reacting an arene, alkene or alkane with alkali metals or group II and some transition. F. All are prepared by direct reaction of the metal of interest with any organic halide.
