Define "Mutarotation"

Chemistry
1 answer:
zubka84 [21]3 years ago
3 0

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.

The shielding of electrons gives rise to an effective nuclear charge, Zeff, which explains why boron is larger than oxygen. Esti
Vesna [10]

Zeff = Z - S

Here, Z is the number of protons in the nucleus, that is, atomic number, and S is the number of nonvalence electrons.

For boron, the electronic configuration is 1s₂ 2s₂ 2p₄

Z = 5, S = 2

Zeff = 5-2 = +3

For O, electronic configuration is 1s₂ 2s₂ 2p₄

Z = 8, S = 2

Zeff = 8-2 = +6

Hence, the correct answer is second option, that is, +3 and +6, the Zeff of boron is smaller in comparison to O, thus, boron exhibits a bigger size than O.
