a) Define the specific rotation of D?
b) Define the observed rotation if this solution is mixed with an equal volume that is 0.15 M in L, L is the enantiomer of D?
c) Define the observed rotation if the solution of D is diluted with an equal volume of solvent?
d) Define the specific rotation of D after the diltuion described in part (C)?
e) Define the specific rotation of L, the enantiomer of D, after the dilution described in part C?
f) Define the observed rotation of 100 ml of a solution that contains 0.01 mole of D and 0.005 mole of L? Assume a 1 dm path length
