Why are CH3CH2COOH and CH3CHOHCHO optical isomers?
These are not optical isomers they are functional group isomers a subcategory of structural isomers.
How many optical isomers in tartaric acid?
4
Why are optical isomers not found in CH2ClBr?
Optical isomers are found only if there is chiral centre. There is no chiral centre in CH2ClBr due to the presence of two hydrogens on a single carbon.
What is formula to find optical isomerism?
unsymmetrical atom & chiral carbonoptical isomers=2nmesomers=osymmetrical atom & chiral carbon- 1,3,5,...optical isomers=2n-1mesomers=2n/2-1symmetrical atom & chiral carbon- 2,4,6,...optical isomers=2n-1-2(n-1)/2mesomers=2(n-1)/2
Does 3-chloro-3-methylhexane have optical isomers?
Yes. 4 different groups are bonded to the third carbon atom.

How does one recognize optical isomers?
Optical isomers are isomers of molecules which are non-superimposible. They have a left hand and a right hand and this is how you distinguish between them.

How do optical isomers rotate plane of plane polarised light?
REFER : optical rotatory dispersion

What is the difference between d ascorbic and L ascorbic acid?
l ascorbic acid and d ascorbic acid are optical isomers of each other. Optical isomers have the same physical and chemical properties but bend the plane of polarisation of polarized light in different directions.It is also called ChiralitySee the related link for more info on optical isomers.
Why do some isomers lack optical activity?
doesnt have the right number of neutrons
How many isomers of C3H6Cl2 are possible?
1,2-dichloropropane exists as an optical isomer.
Can molecule ethylene have geometric isomers?
Yes, they do, but only those having an even number of continuous double bonds. Dialkenes having two continuous double bonds, and they can form optical isomers because the groups present on the carbons lie on different perpendicular planes. So, they are not symmetric in any fashion, and hence chiral. This makes them optically active, having two optical isomers.
Does 3-chloro-3-methylhexane have optical isomers?
Yes. 4 different groups are bonded to the third carbon atom.
