The observed rotation of a solution of 1.2 g of a compound in 10 mL of water is 0.75 degrees. If the pathlength is 10 cm, what is the specific rotation of the compound

The specific rotation of the compound is +0.09°

Explanation:

Step 1: Data given

Mass of compound = 1.2 grams

Volume water = 10 mL

pathlength = 10 cm = 1 dm

Observed rotation of the compound = 0.75 °

Step 2: Calculate the specific rotation

[ α ]  =  α /(c*l)

⇒ with [ α ]   = the specific rotation = TO BE DETERMINED

⇒ with α = the observed rotation = 0.75 °

⇒ with c = 1.2 grams of compound / 10 mL

⇒ with l = the pathlength = 10 cm = 1 dm

[ α ]  =  0.75 ° / ((1.2grams /10mL)*1 dm)

[ α ]  = +0.09°

The specific rotation of the compound is +0.09°

answer: any goods being imported from another country may be subject to issued by the federal government are tariffs

explanation:  

tariffs are a tax on anything that are imported from abroad. government use them to protect and boost their local industries and the thought is that they encourage consumers to buy local instead of importing and they will hope will protect jobs and economy in the country that implements them
