The mixture contains 62 % one isomer and 38 % the enantiomer.

Let’s say that the mixture contains 62 % of the (<em>R</em>)-isomer.

Then % (<em>S</em>) = 100 % -62 % = 38 %

ee = %  (<em>R</em>) - % (<em>S</em>) = 62 % -38 % = 24 %

<u>Answer:</u> The percentage of R-enantiomer is 62 %, the percentage of S-enantiomer is 38 % and the percent enantiomer excess is 24 %

<u>Explanation:</u>

We are given:

A chiral molecule limonene which is 62 % enantiopure.

This molecule has two enantiomers, which are R-limonene and S-limonene.

Let us consider that 62% of the given molecule is R-limonene.

So, the remaining S-limonene will be = (100 - 62) = 38 %

Percent enantiomeric excess is defined as the difference between the percentage major enantiomer and the percentage minor enantiomer.

Mathematically,

\%\text{ Enantiomer excess}=\%\text{ Major enantiomer}-\%\text{ Minor enantiomer}

% major enantiomer = 62 %

% minor enantiomer = 38 %

Putting values in above equation, we get:

\%\text{ Enantiomer excess}=62\%-38\%=24\%

Hence, the percentage of R-enantiomer is 62 %, the percentage of S-enantiomer is 38 % and the percent enantiomer excess is 24 %

Iron has a density of 7.86 g/cm3. Calculate the volume (in dL) of a piece of iron having a mass of 4.79 kg .
Kazeer [188]
M = 4.79 kg = 4790 g
d = 7.86 g/cm3
density = mass/volume
v = m/d
v = 4790/7.86
v = 609.4 cm3
1 cm3 = 10^-2 dL

v = 609.4 x 0.01 = 6.09 dL

Non metals whose 2 forms<br> 1]very hard <br> 2] conductor of electricity
Usimov [2.4K]

Answer:

Diamond

Explanation:

Diamond has covalent bonds, which makes it a non-metal.

However, it also has a tetrahedral structure, which holds its C atoms together by strong forces, thus making it hard.

Diamond also has free-moving electrons due to its tetrahedral structure, thus making it possible to conduct electricity.

Xelga [282]

Answer:

Modern periodic law

Explanation:

There are many ways of stating the modern periodic law. Generally, the modern periodic law states that the properties of elements are a periodic function of their atomic numbers. That means, similar properties recur periodically when elements are arranged according to increasing atomic number.

Two scientists were largely responsible for our present day understanding of the modern periodic law, they are, Mendeleev and Moseley. Their work laid the foundation for the periodic table in its current form.

Clo3− draw the molecule by placing atoms on the grid and connecting them with bonds. Include all lone pairs of electrons. Show t
Karo-lina-s [1.5K]

The formal charges of all nonhydrogen atoms are -1.

Solution:-

<u>O 7-4 = 3 O Double bond on one H 5-4 = 1</u>

O-Cl-O 6-7 = -1x4 = -4 N 5-4=1 H-N-H 1-1=0

O 3-4= -1 O O 6-7 = -1(2)=-2 H 1-0=+1

<u>6-6 = 0 1-2 = -1</u>

It will percentage its last valence electron thru a single bond to the terminal oxygen atom. This is in agreement with carbon and hydrogen atoms that each need to form 4 and 1 covalent bonds respectively. because the terminal oxygen atom best has a single covalent bond, it'll have a proper rate of -1.

According to the lewis structure of SO2, The critical atom is sulfur and it is bonded with 2 oxygen atoms thru a double bond. each oxygen atom acquires 2 lone pairs of electrons and the primary sulfur atom has 1 lone pair of electrons.

In a living organism, what is a tissue
Rus_ich [418]

Answer:

Tissue is a group of cells.

Explanation:

Human body tissue consists of groups of cells with a similar structure working together for a specific function.

Human body tissue is another way of describing how our cells are grouped together in a highly organized manner according to specific structure and function. These groupings of cells form tissues, which then make up organs and various parts of the body. For example, it's easy to see and feel muscle in the body. Muscle is one of the four types of human body tissue. In this lesson, learn more about the types of tissue and how each functions for a different purpose.
