Answer: The enantiomeric excess ee is 50%

Explanation:

Given that;

compound A = 75%, B = 25%

ee = ?

ee = [( A - B) / ( A + B)] × 100

= [( 75 - 25) / ( 75 + 25)] × 100

= [50 / 100] × 100

= 0.5 × 100

= 50%

Therefore enantiomeric excess ee is 50%

Compare and contrast how observations and results can be used to

worty [1.4K]

Answer:

by statistical analyses, especially by determining the p-value

Explanation:

In general, observations and results obtained from experimental procedures are subjected to a statistical test to check the robustness of the working hypothesis. The p-value is the most widely used statistical index in order to test such observations and results. The p-value is the statistical probability of obtaining extreme observed results when the null hypothesis is considered correct. A p-value lesser than 0.05 generally is considered statistically significant and then the null hypothesis can be rejected. In consequence, a very low p-value (which is obtained by statistical analysis of the observations and results), indicates that there is strong evidence in support of the alternative hypothesis.
