When burning sodium (Na) in oxygen (O2), you get sodium oxide (Na2O) and/or sodium peroxide (Na2O2). At high pressures, you can additionally get sodium superoxide (NaO2).
4 Na + O2 → 2 Na2O, and then partially 2 Na2O + O2 → 2 Na2O2.
Under normal conditions, approximately 20% of the mixture is Na2O2.
6 Na + 2 O2 → 2 Na2O + Na2O2

Sodium chloride has the highest melting point while iodine has the least melting point.
The melting points of solid substances depends on the nature of intermolecular forces that exists in the substance. The stronger the magnitude of intermolecular forces in a substance, the higher its melting point.
The order of melting points of the solids shown in question is as follows;
- 1st - Sodium chloride
- 2nd - sucrose
- 3rd - paraffin
- 4th - Iodine
Sodium chloride has the highest melting points because it is an ionic substance. Among the molecular sucrose and paraffin, sucrose has a higher melting point than sucrose because it has a greater molar mass. Iodine, a molecular substance has the least molar mass and the least melting point in the list.

Answer:
<u>Optical purity = 76.9231 %</u>
<u>Specific rotation of mixture = - 97.6923 °</u>
Explanation:
The mass of the racemic mixture = 3 g
It means it contains R enantiomer = 1.5 g
S enantiomer = 1.5 g
Amount of Pure R = 10 g
Total R = 11.5 g
Total volume = 500 mL + 500 mL = 1000 mL = 1 L
[R] = 11.5 g/L
[S] = 1.5 g/L
Enantiomeric excess =
=
= 76.9231 %
<u>Optical purity = 76.9231 %</u>
Also,
Optical purity = 
Optical rotation of pure enantiomer = −127 °

<u>Specific rotation of mixture = - 97.6923 °</u>
