An aqueous solution containing 10g of an optically pure compound was diluted to 500 mL with water and was found to have a specific rotation of -133 degrees. If this solution were mixed with 500mL of a solution containing 6g of a racemic mixture of the compound, what would the specific rotation of the resulting mixture of the compound? What would be its optical purity?

A compound of molecular formula C7H13Br is a tertiary bromide, is optically inactive, and has one primary carbon atom. C7H13Br is inert to catalytic hydrogenation. C7H13Br is reacted with another unknown compound. Thin-layer chromatography of the product mixture shows that two products are formed. GC analysis shows that the two products are formed in unequal amounts. Upon isolation from each other via distillation, both isolated products are optically inactive. Both products de-colorize molecular bromine. Answer questions a-c below. a. Based...
