Robert has pure samples of both D-ribose and D-arabinose, but he forgot to label them. He only has some nitric acid, the reagent

s for a Wohl degradation, and a polarimeter (an instrument for measuring optical activity) in his lab. In approximately 50 words or less, explain how Robert can determine which sample is which without using any additional resources. If it is not possible, clearly state so and explain why it is not possible in approximately 50 words or less.

Answer:

Following are the responses to the given question:

Explanation:

Since HN03 is an oxidation substance D-ribose u.ith oxidized to form in rubric acid Ribose is chiral, but rubric acid is achiral because of its symmetry mirror level, Hence no infrared roster in the sample holder is observed.

Please find the attached file.

D-Arabinose, on either hand, gives optical aldaric acid with such a net optical rotation observed inside the polarimeter for diagnosis with HN03.

Determine the electron geometry (eg) and molecular geometry (mg) of <img src="https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=CH_3%5E%2B" id="TexFormula
Yuri [45]

Answer : The correct option is, (e) eg = trigonal planar, mg = trigonal planar

Explanation :

Formula used  :

\text{Number of electron pair}=\frac{1}{2}[V+N-C+A]

where,

V = number of valence electrons present in central atom

N = number of monovalent atoms bonded to central atom

C = charge of cation

A = charge of anion

The given molecule is, CH_3^+

\text{Number of electron pair}=\frac{1}{2}\times [4+3-1]=3

That means,

Bond pair = 3

Lone pair = 0

The number of electron pair are 3 that means the hybridization will be sp^2 and the electronic geometry of the molecule will be trigonal planar.

Hence, the electron geometry (eg) and molecular geometry (mg) of CH_3^+  is, trigonal planar and trigonal planar respectively.
