Question

What will be the optical purity of a chiral
Substrate if it contains the two enantiomens
in the ratio of 3:1?
​

Answer 1

Ans:

HERE IS YOUR ANSWER

Explanation:

A racemic mixture is a 50:50 mixture of two enantiomers. Racemic mixtures were an interesting experimental discovery because two optically active samples can be combined in a 1:1 ratio to create an optically INACTIVE sample. Polarimetry is used to measure optical activity. The history and theoretical foundation are discussed below.

Identifying and distinguishing enantiomers is inherently difficult, since their physical and chemical properties are largely identical. Fortunately, a nearly two hundred year old discovery by the French physicist Jean-Baptiste Biot has made this task much easier. This discovery disclosed that the right- and left-handed enantiomers of a chiral compound perturb plane-polarized light in opposite ways. This perturbation is unique to chiral molecules, and has been termed optical activity.
