The correct Answer is:
To solve the question regarding the formation of a racemic mixture by mixing mirror images (D and L forms) in a 1:1 molar ratio, we need to follow a systematic approach: ### Step-by-Step Solution: 1. **Understanding Racemic Mixture**: - A racemic mixture is formed when two enantiomers (optically active compounds that are mirror images of each other) are mixed in equal amounts (1:1 ratio). This results in a mixture that is optically inactive because the optical activities of the two enantiomers cancel each other out. 2. **Identifying Optically Active Compounds**: - For a compound to be optically active, it must lack a plane of symmetry. Therefore, we need to analyze the given options to determine which compounds are optically active. 3. **Analyzing the Options**: - **Option A: trans-CO-glycinate whole thrice**: - This compound has a bidentate ligand (glycinate) that is unsymmetrical. The structure does not have a plane of symmetry, making it optically active. Thus, mixing its D and L forms will yield a racemic mixture. - **Option B: Nickel DMG whole twice**: - Nickel with dimethylglyoxime (DMG) forms a square planar complex. This structure has a plane of symmetry, making it optically inactive. Therefore, it cannot form a racemic mixture. - **Option C: cis-Cu-glycinate whole twice**: - This compound also forms a square planar structure with glycinate. Similar to option B, it has a plane of symmetry, making it optically inactive and unable to form a racemic mixture. - **Option D: Zinc-EN-glycinate whole plus**: - Zinc with ethylenediamine (EN) and glycinate forms a tetrahedral structure. However, the presence of a plane of symmetry in this structure renders it optically inactive, thus it cannot form a racemic mixture. 4. **Conclusion**: - After analyzing all options, the only compound that can form a racemic mixture when its D and L forms are mixed in a 1:1 ratio is **Option A: trans-CO-glycinate whole thrice**. ### Final Answer: The correct option is **A: trans-CO-glycinate whole thrice**. ---

If the distance between the virtual image from Its real object is 60 cm in case of a concave mirror . The focal length of the concave mirror If the image formed is 3 times magnified image is

Assertion : In case of a concave mirror if a point object is moving towards the mirror along its principal axis, then its image will move away from the mirror. Reason : In case of reflection (along the principal axis of mirror) object and image always travel in opposite directions.
