I suppose that the answer is A
Put a thermometer in the water and wait until it boils. When it boils record the temperature and compare it to the normal water boiling point.
Answer:
Your notation is a bit confusing, let me write it more clearly.
Explanation:
( Temperature in °F − 32) × 5/9 = Temperature in °C
Let us say that R is the major enantiomer, while
S is the minor enantiomer, therefore the formula for enantiomeric excess (ee)
is:
ee = (R – S) * 100%
Let us further say that the fraction of R is x (R
= x), and therefore fraction of S is 1 – x (S = 1 – x), therefore:
75 = (x – (1 – x)) * 100
75 = 100 x – 100 + 100 x
200 x = 175
x = 0.875
Summary of answers:
R = major enantiomer = 0.875 or 87.5%
<span>S = minor enantiomer = (1 – 0.875) = 0.125 or
12.5%</span>
