AI Generated Solution

To solve the question, we need to fill in the blank regarding the relationship between the meso and (+) forms of tartaric acid. Here’s a step-by-step breakdown of the solution: ### Step 1: Understand the Structure of Tartaric Acid Tartaric acid is a dihydroxy dicarboxylic acid with two chiral centers. The presence of these chiral centers means that tartaric acid can exist in different stereoisomeric forms. ### Step 2: Identify the Types of Isomers - **Meso Compound**: A meso compound has multiple chiral centers but is superimposable on its mirror image due to an internal plane of symmetry. - **Optically Active Isomer**: The (+) form of tartaric acid is optically active, meaning it can rotate plane-polarized light. ...
