define Stereoisomerism and properties
Answers
STEREOISOMERISM....
Stereoisomers are molecules that have the same molecular formula and differ only in how their atoms are arranged in three-dimensional space. Be careful not to confuse them with constitutional isomerswhich also have the same molecular formula but differ in the way their atoms are connected.....
STEREOISOMERISM PROPERTIES....
Physical Properties of Stereoisomers. Enantiomers are equal in all their physical properties except for theiroptical rotation, as they rotate theplane of polarized light by equal amounts in opposite directions. ... They differ only in their direction of optical rotation...
HOPE THIS WILL HELP YOU ❤️ ❤️❤️❤️
STAY BLESSED ❤️ ❤️❤️❤️
the isomerism ascribed to different relative positions of the atoms or groups of atoms in the molecules of organic compounds.
definition=>chem isomerism caused by differences in the spatial arrangement of atoms in molecules
properties
idk
just kidding^_^
Enantiomers are equal in all their physical properties except for their optical rotation, as they rotate the plane of polarized light by equal amounts in opposite directions. In contrast, diastereomers are characteristically different in their physical properties, such as melting and boiling points, densities, solubilities, heats of formation, and Gibbs free energies. If a molecule contains more than one chirality center and therefore consists of several pairs of enantiomers and diastereomers, the physical properties of each diastereomer must be noted. Tartaric acid, for instance, consists of three stereoisomers, a pair of enantiomers and a meso compound.
