A 1.50 g sample of coniine, the toxic extract of poison hemlock, was dissolved
in 10.0 mL of ethanol and placed in a sample cell with a 5.00 cm pathlength.
The observed rotation at the sodium D line was +1.21°. Calculate [a]p for
coniine.
If a solution of a compound (50.0 g/100 mL of solution) has a measured rotation
of +150 in a 2 dm tube, the specific rotation is:
O +15
O +20
O +35
O +8
An aqueous solution containing 7.57 g of an optically-pure compound was diluted to 2.00×102 mL with water and placed in a 10.0 cm long polarimeter tube. The measured rotation was −4.11° at 25° C. Calculate the specific rotation of the compound.
