Congenital Galactosemia typically appears only in infants
because with maturation, most children develop another enzyme
capable of metabolizing galactose. Its incidence is about 1 per
18,000 births. If the infant does not receive treatment then there
is a 75% chance of death. Thus, in the United States infants are
screened for galactosemia. Galactosemia can be confused with
lactose intolerance but galactosemia is a considerably more serious
condition because consumption of galactose can cause
permanent damage to their bodies. What
dietary changes should be made?

Compound (A) forms only proprionaldehyde (B) upon ozonolysis and reduction with (CH3)2S. Treatment of (A) with aqueous chlorine affords (C) (C6H13ClO). Exposure of (C) to aqueous NaOH produces racemate (D) (C6H12O). (Think about intramolecular SN 2 reaction Williamson ether synthesis). Compound (D) is also formed by the reaction of peracid with (A). What are the structures of (A), (B), (C) and (D)? Illustrate and explain. Show mechanism of aqueous chlorine reaction and indicate the arrows and lone pairs.

Suppose you carried out the catalyst trial. Could you calculate,
from your data, the value of Ea
for the reaction catalyzed by copper? If not, what additional
experimental data would you
require in order to be able to do this? Would the value of Ea be
greater or less than that
obtained for the uncatalyzed reaction? Explain. Please type your
answers.

In a laboratory experiment, students synthesized a new compound
and found that when 11.77 grams of the compound
were dissolved to make 253.3 mL of a
benzene solution, the osmotic pressure generated
was 3.94 atm at 298 K. The
compound was also found to be nonvolatile and a
non-electrolyte.
What is the molecular weight they determined for this compound?

2.5 grams of a metallic sample containing an unknown amount of zinc is dissolved in 500 ml of acidic water, releasing the zinc into the water as Zn2+ ions. A 10.00 ml aliquot of this solution is extracted with 10 ml of CCl4 containing an excess of 8-hydroxy quinoline. The CCl4 and aqueous phases separate and 8-hydroxy quinoline forms a fluorescent complex with Zn2+ ions that partitions entirely into the CCl4 phase. The CCl4 phase is separated and then diluted to 25 ml. This solution gives a fluorescence intensity of 155 (arbitrary units). A similar procedure is done with 10.00 ml of the unknown zinc solution plus 8.00 ml of an aqueous 2.50 ppm Zn2+ solution, and the final fluorescence intensity is 247. Calculate the Zn2+ concentration in the original 500 ml solution and the amount of zinc in the original solid.
