Answer:
Clavulanic acid has two (2) chiral centers.
Explanation:
A chiral center is a center (usually carbon) with four different substituents.
The structure of clavulanic acid is shown in the attachment below.
Consider the labeled diagram in the attachment,
Carbon A is not a chiral carbon because it has two hydrogen atoms attached to it
Carbon B is not a chiral carbon because it has only three substituents
Carbon C is a chiral carbon because it has four different substituents
Carbon D is a chiral carbon because it has four different substituents
Carbon E is not a chiral carbon because it has only three atoms directly attached to it
Carbon F is not a chiral carbon because it has only three atoms directly attached to it
Carbon G is not a chiral carbon because it has two hydrogen atoms attached to it
Carbon H is not a chiral carbon because it has only three substituents
Then, only carbons C and D are chiral carbons.
Hence, clavulanic acid have two (2) chiral centers.
When water reaches its boiling point and turns into water vapor, the molecular structure of water remains the same. It is only the state of the substance that is changed in this process. I hope this helps you
We can use the dilution formula to find the volume of the diluted solution to be prepared
c1v1 = c2v2
Where c1 is concentration and v1 is volume of the concentrated solution
And c2 is concentration and v2 is volume of the diluted solution to be prepared
Substituting the values in the equation
15 M x 25 mL = 3 M x v2
v2 = 125 mL
The 25 mL concentrated solution should be diluted with distilled water upto 125 mL to make a 3 M solution
the answer is thermal.......
