Concept explainers
(a)
Interpretation:
Whether the given compound is optically active or not needs to be determined.
Concept Introduction:
The ball-stick model is a method of representation of molecules to demonstrate the three-dimensional position of atoms and the bonds. The atoms are represented by different colored spheres, while bonds are represented by rods connecting the spheres. Chiral or optically active molecules can rotate plane-polarized light either clockwise or counterclockwise. If plane-polarized light is rotated clockwise then it is known as dextrorotatory and for counterclockwise rotation, it is known as levorotatory.

Chapter 15 Solutions

- In addition to the separation techniques used in this lab (magnetism, evaporation, and filtering), there are other commonly used separation techniques. Some of these techniques are:Distillation – this process is used to separate components that have significantly different boiling points. The solution is heated and the lower boiling point substance is vaporized first. The vapor can be collected and condensed and the component recovered as a pure liquid. If the temperature of the mixture is then raised, the next higher boiling component will come off and be collected. Eventually only non-volatile components will be left in the original solution.Centrifugation – a centrifuge will separate mixtures based on their mass. The mixture is placed in a centrifuge tube which is then spun at a high speed. Heavier components will settle at the bottom of the tube while lighter components will be at the top. This is the technique used to separate red blood cells from blood plasma.Sieving – this is…arrow_forwardBriefly describe a eutectic system.arrow_forward13.53 Draw all stereoisomers formed when each compound is treated with HBr in the presence of peroxides. a. b.
