### Enantiomer Calculations#### Question 8**Problem Statement:**How much of the S-enantiomer is present in 10 g of a mixture which has an enantiomeric excess of 20% of the R-enantiomer?- **Options:** - A) 2 g - B) 3 g - C) 4 g - D) 5 g - E) 6 g**Explanation:**- Given data: Total mixture mass = 10 g, Enantiomeric excess (ee) = 20% of R-enantiomer- Enantiomeric excess (ee) is defined as the difference between the percentages of the two enantiomers.- If ee = 20%, then 80% of the mixture is composed of an equal mixture of R and S enantiomers, and 20% is the excess amount of the R-enantiomer.- Let \( R \) be the amount of R-enantiomer and \( S \) be the amount of S-enantiomer. - The amount of R-enantiomer in the 10 g mixture: \( R \) = \( 5g + \frac{(20/100) \times 10g}{2} \) = 6 g - Therefore, the amount of S-enantiomer in the 10 g mixture: \( S \) = 10 - 6 = 4 g - Hence, the correct answer is C) 4 g.#### Question 9**Problem Statement:**A solution of 0.2 g/ml of a pure R-enantiomer in a 1 dm polarimeter sample tube rotates the plane of polarized light by +5°. What is the rotation observed on this solution in a 2 dm polarimeter sample tube?- **Options:** - A) 0 - B) -5 - C) 10 - D) -10 - E) 5**Explanation:**- Given data: concentration = 0.2 g/ml, tube length = 1 dm, observed rotation = +5°- Optical rotation is directly proportional to the path length of the polarimeter tube. - New tube length: 2 dm - Rotation observed: \( +5° \times \frac{2 \,

C. Smelling Chirality. Carvone Olfactory receptors in our noses, used for the detection of odors, are chiral. Therefore, in some cases, we can tell the difference between enantiomers by their odor. Carvone is one such compound that we can distinguish between the R and S enantiomer by their odor. 1. Identify the chiral center in carvone and draw the R and S enantiomers in the indicated boxes. 2. Smell both of the enantiomers of carvone and provide a brief description of their odors in the same boxes. Carvone is perfectly safe to smell as both enantiomers are found in various foods.
