Answer:
Mutarotation refers to the change in the optical rotation or optical activity of a solution due to the change in the equilibrium of the two anomers. It depends upon the optical activity and ratio of the anomeric forms in the solution.
To measure the optical rotation of a given solution, a polarimeter can be used and thus the ratio of the anomeric forms can be calculated.
Answer:
The number of molecules is 1.4140*10^24 molecules
Explanation:
To know the number of molecules, we need to determine how many moles of water we have, water has molar mass of 18.015g/mol
This means that one mole of water molecules has a mass of 18.015g.
42.3g * 1 mole H2O/18.015g
= 2.3480 moles H2O
We are using avogadros number to find the number of molecules of water
2.3480 H2O * 6.022*10^ 23moles/ 1mole of H2O
That's 2.3480 multiplied by 6.022*10^23 divided by 1 mole of H2O
Number of molecules = 1.4140 *10^24 molecules
