Compound I is a D-aldopentose that can be oxidized by dilute nitric acid to an optically inactive aldaric acid II. On Kiliani-Fischer synthesis (chain extension), I is converted into III and IV; III can be oxidized to an optically active aldaric acid V, but IV is oxidized to an optically inactive aldaric acid VI.
Show the structures of I – VI (in the Fischer projection formula).

I have provided the information for the lab below. I want to see the chemical reactions that take place during each step of the experiment. So in the procedures when a chemical was added i would like to see what the products and byproducts that were formed. I also want to see one over all reaction for this experiment to just get an overview of what exactly is happening during the experiment. Thank you:) Part B: Synthesis of [Co(NH3)5Cl]Cl2 Objective:...

Below is the background info for the lab assignment. The 4 blank boxes are the questions I would like answers too. The end point for the fine titration was 35.90 mL in the burette when the solution turned bright green again. And the coarse titration I got 35.36mL as the end point. 35.9 mL is exact in case you need that info. Thanks! Background In this lab, we will determine the amount of alcohol (ethanol), C2H5OH, in a commercial vodka...
