The specific rotation of (r)-2-butanol is −13.5°. what specific rotation would be observed for a 3: 1 mixture of (s): (r) 2-butanol?

If the specific rotation of (r)-2-butanol is −13.5° then the specific rotation of (s)-2-butanol is simply the opposite in sign 13.5°. In a 3:1 mixture of (s):(r) 2-butanol, 75% is (s) while 25% is r, so the specific rotation of the mixture is:

mixture rotation = 0.75 * (13.5°) + 0.25 * (- 13.5°)

mixture rotation = 6.75°

the leaf is an organ of a typical plant, and the main functions are to complete photosynthesis and allow the plant to exchange gas, just like how we have the respiratory system. leaves have the stomata, which collects maintains co2 and o2 levels. this is necessary for cell metabolism. the leaf also collects sunlight using chloroplasts. succinctly, leaves own a pivotal role in sustaining plant life.
