0.5 g of an optically active compound was dissolved in 2mL of solvent at 250C. The solution was kept in a cell of length 10 cm and observed rotation was +100. What is the specific rotation of its enantiomer?

Structure and Stereostructure of Molecules topics include: Chirality, stereoselectivity and stereospecificity, optical Isomerism and r, s- configuration and water softening. Stereochemistry is a branch of chemistry that studies the spatial arrangement of atoms in molecules. It is also known as 3D chemistry because the prefix "stereo-" means "three-dimensionality".  Stereochemistry studies the relationships between stereoisomers, which have the same molecular formula and sequence of bonded atoms but differ in the geometric positioning of the atoms in space.

Stereochemistry is a branch of chemistry that studies the spatial arrangement of atoms in molecules. It is also known as 3D chemistry because the prefix "stereo-" means "three-dimensionality". 

Stereochemistry studies the relationships between stereoisomers, which have the same molecular formula and sequence of bonded atoms but differ in the geometric positioning of the atoms in space. Stereochemistry also studies how the differing 3D structures between molecules that have the same chemical formula and 2D structures affect their function.
