12 . A scientist takes a 0.5 solution of an unknown pure dextrorotatory organic molecule
and places it in a test tube with a diameter of 1 cm. He observes that a plane of polarized
light is rotated 12° under these conditions. What is the specific rotation of this molecule?
(A) –240°

(C) +24°
(D) +240°
13 . Omeprazole is a proton pump inhibitor commonly used in gastroesophageal reflux
disease. When omeprazole, a racemic mixture, went off-patent, pharmaceutical
companies began to manufacture esomeprazole, the (S)-enantiomer of omeprazole, by
itself. Given 1 M solutions of omeprazole and esomeprazole, which solution(s) would likely
exhibit optical activity?
(A) Omeprazole only
(B) Esomeprazole only
(C) Both omeprazole and esomeprazole
(D) Neither omeprazole nor esomeprazole
