(a) Why are alkanes said to be saturated? (b) Is \(\mathrm{C}_{4} \mathrm{H}_{6}\) a saturated hydrocarbon? Why or why not?
The molar heat of combustion of gaseous cyclopropane is \(-2089 \mathrm{~kJ} / \mathrm{mol} ;\) that for gaseous cyclopentane is \(-3317 \mathrm{~kJ} / \mathrm{mol}\). Calculate the heat of combustion per \(\mathrm{CH}_{2}\) group in the two cases, and account for the difference.
(a) When cyclopropane is treated with HI, 1-iodopropane is formed. A similar type of reaction does not occur with cyclopentane or cyclohexane. How do you account for the reactivity of cyclopropane? (b) Suggest a method of preparing ethylbenzene, starting with benzene and ethylene as the only organic reagents.
What is the difference between \(\alpha\) -glucose and \(\beta\) -glucose? Show the condensation of two glucose molecules to form a disaccharide with an \(\alpha\) linkage; with a \(\beta\) linkage.
A typical amino acid with one amino group and one carboxylic acid group, such as serine (Figure 24.18 ), can exist in water in several ionic forms. (a) Suggest the forms of the amino acid at low \(\mathrm{pH}\) and at high \(\mathrm{pH}\). (b) Amino acids generally have two \(\mathrm{p} K_{a}\) values, one in the range of 2 to 3 and the other in the range of 9 to \(10 .\) Serine, for example, has \(\mathrm{p} K_{a}\) values of 2.19 and \(9.21 .\) Using species such as acetic acid and ammonia as models, suggest the origin of the two \(\mathrm{p} K_{a}\) values. (c) Glutamic acid is an amino acid that has three \(\mathrm{p} K_{a}\) 's: 2.10 , 4.07, and 9.47. Draw the structure of glutamic acid, and assign each \(\mathrm{p} K_{a}\) to the appropriate part of the molecule.
