### Current Attempt in ProgressWhen 0.234 g of monosodium glutamate (MSG) is dissolved in 10.0 mL of water and placed in a sample cell 10.0 cm in length, the observed rotation at 20° (using the D line of sodium) is +0.599°. Calculate the specific rotation of MSG.**Specific rotation** = [α] = ______### Explanation:To calculate the specific rotation [α] of a substance, you can use the formula:\[ [α] = \frac{α}{l \cdot c} \]Where:- \( α \) is the observed rotation in degrees.- \( l \) is the path length (length of the sample cell) in decimeters (dm). Note that 1 dm = 10 cm.- \( c \) is the concentration of the solution in grams per milliliter (g/mL).In this problem:- Observed rotation (α) = +0.599°- Path length (l) = 10 cm = 1 dm- Mass of MSG = 0.234 g- Volume of solution = 10.0 mL- Concentration (c) = 0.234 g / 10.0 mL = 0.0234 g/mLPlug these values into the formula to compute the specific rotation [α]. ### eTextbook and Media[This section typically provides access to additional educational resources related to this topic.]
