Question
Chapter 7.4, Problem 3E
Interpretation Introduction
Interpretation:
The laboratory method used to identify the two enantiomers of the carvone needs to be determined.
Concept Introduction :
The capability of a solution to rotate plane-polarized light is known as optical activity, and solutions which have this capability are known to be optically active solutions.
Enantiomers are isomers which are non-superimposable mirror images of each other.

- The LD50 (“Lethal Dose, 50 %”) is a value used in toxicology which gives the amount of a substance required to kill 50 % of a test population. It is usually reported based on body weight. For racemic carvone LD50 is reported as 1640 mg/kg. 1. Would it consider carvone to be toxic to an average person? Explain. 2.
