Concept explainers

Carbohydrates
Carbohydrates are the organic compounds that are obtained in foods and living matters in the shape of sugars, cellulose, and starch. The general formula of carbohydrates is Cn(H2O)2. The ratio of H and O present in carbohydrates is identical to water.
Starch
Starch is a polysaccharide carbohydrate that belongs to the category of polysaccharide carbohydrates.
Mutarotation
The rotation of a particular structure of the chiral compound because of the epimerization is called mutarotation. It is the repercussion of the ring chain tautomerism. In terms of glucose, this can be defined as the modification in the equilibrium of th…
L Sugar
A chemical compound that is represented with a molecular formula C6H12O6 is called L-(-) sugar. At the carbon’s 5th position, the hydroxyl group is placed to the compound’s left and therefore the sugar is represented as L(-)-sugar. It is capable of rotat…

Chapter 4, Problem 96P
Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation:

The percent of (R)-isomer present in the given sample of (S)-(+)-lactic acid has to be calculated.

Concept introduction:

The pair of Enantiomers has different configurations.

Pair of enantiomers has different optical activity, which means if one will show levorotatory then the other will show dextrorotatory.

The direction and magnitude of rotation of plane-polarized light by an optically compound is measured by using polarimeter.

This rotation of polarized light is specific for a compound at specified temperature and wavelength, so it is called as Specific rotation of that compound.

The specific rotation of enantiomers has equal magnitudes and opposite signs.

Racemic mixture (equal amounts of enantiomers) of a compound has zero specific rotation.
