A. When one of the enantiomers of 2-butanol is placed in a polarimeter, the observed rotation is 4.050 counterclockwise. The solution was made by diluting 6.0 grams of (-)-2-butanol to a total of 40.0 mL and the solution was placed into a 200 mm polarimeter tube for the measurement. Determine the specific rotation for this enantiomer of 2-butanol. Show work using the equation function (insert tab of the editing menu above) to receive credit. Uploaded answers or work without using the equation function, will not be graded. B. What will be the specific rotation of the dextrorotatory enantiomer?
