yousuf89 Posted March 31, 2010 Share Posted March 31, 2010 (edited) Given the specific rotation of L- Alanine = + 1.8° ( 25° C), calculate the optical rotation (observed) of a 1.10 M solution of Alanine in water at 25° C in a 25cm polarimeter tube. Show all calculations I know the formula is Specific Rotation = observed rotation (deg) × 100 / Optical path length (dm) × concentration (g/100ml) I think I found that the concentration is 0.097999 g/mL and the optical path length is 2.5 dm but I'm little bit confused and I was absent on the class that was talking about this because I had a fever. can anyone help me?
