b) A student finds two bottles of colourless liquid containing the same molecule (shown below), but one bottle (A) is labelled "racemic" and the other (B) is labelled "enantiopure". i) Describe what is meant by “racemic". In the context of Bottle A, what does that say about the actual contents of the bottle? ii) Conversely, what do you think is meant by "enantiopure" in the context of Bottle B? А ОН В ОН 1-phenylethanol 1-phenylethanol racemic enantiopure

Draw the full molecular orbital diagram for [Fe(H2O)6] + 2. Each MO must have a drawing of the interaction and the appropriate Mulliken symbol. Approximate ligands down to their lone pairs, and derive the point group from only the geometry created by those donating atoms.
“Mango-globin” is a hemoglobin variant in which the iron atoms in each subunit have been substituted with manganese atoms. Mango-globin binds to oxygen at very high partial pressures, but does not exhibit any cooperativity. Propose an explanation for this observation. (Hint: the ionic radius of Fe2+ is 77 pm; the ionic radius of Mn2+ is 82 pm.) The free energy change for a chemical reaction is defined as follows: ∆?!= ∆? ̊!+ RT ln [products] / [reactants] When a reaction is at equilibrium, ∆G’ = 0, and this expression simplifies to: ∆? ̊!= −RT ln [products] / [reactants] At equilibrium, the ratio of product to reactant concentrations is nothing more than the equilibrium constant, Keq, for the reaction. Under these conditions: ∆G ̊’ = -RT ln Keq
