It is important because if the sample size is smaller, outliers could skew the data more than if it was large.
The answer is D. To put it simply, all atom wished to become stable. The only way for that is to obtain an octet structure where the outermost shell would have 8 electrons, thus being full.

Explanation:
The drug thalidomide with molecular formula C13H10N2O4 was widely prescribed by doctors for morning sickness in pregnant women in the 1960s.
The drug was sold as a racemic mixture (+)(R)-thalidomide and (-)(S)-thalidomide.
Unfortunately, only the (+)(R)-thalidomide exhibited the required effect while (-)(S)-thalidomide is a teratogen.
This goes a long way to underscore the importance of separation of enantiomers in drug production.
Therefore, all the teratogenic effects observed when using the drug thalidomide was actually as a result of the presence of (-)(S)-thalidomide, the unwanted enantiomer.
