Draw structures from the following names, and determine which compounds are optically active:(c) 1,2-dibromo-2-methylbutane

dolphi86 [110]

The given compound 1,2-dibromo-2-methylbutane is an optically active compound .

Because this compound does not have plane of symmetry (POS) and center of symmetry (COS) i.e. does not have di-symmetry . And also forms non superimposable mirror image . the compound is optically active .

It has chiral center.

Here , the chiral carbon is attached to the 4 distinct groups such as : methyl , ethyl , bromine , bromomethane .

<h3>What is di-symmetry?</h3>

Di-symmetry is that which have no center of symmetry and plane of symmetry and alternate axis of symmetry .

<h3>Chiral center :</h3>

Have Sp3 hybridized center (4sigma bond ) .

4 distinct group is attached to the chiral atom. form non -superimposable mirror image .

<h3>What is optical isomerism ?</h3>

Same molecular formula and same structural formula . also have same physical and chemical properties .

They differ in their behavior towards plane polarized light (ppl) .

The energy that a log has is transformed when burned. How does the chemical energy of the log compare to the heat and light ener

SCORPION-xisa [38]

The amount of chemical energy is equal to the amount of heat and light energy.

This is due to the principle of conservation of energy, which states that the total energy of a system remains constant.
