How many molecules of substances B are produced when 29.3 g of substance A reacts? The molar mass of substance A is 23.5 g/mol?

 Task: How many molecules of substances B are produced when 29.3 g of substance A reacts? The molar mass of substance A is 23.5 g/mol?
Solution: 
There is a reaction A →B, one molecule A produce one molecule B. 
We can determine the number of the molecules:


when N – number of molecules, Na – Avogadro constant, n – amount of substance, m – mass of substance, M – molar mass of substance.
 (molecules).
Answer: 7.5∙1023 molecules of substances B.

Determine the specific rotation of epinephrine

Problem: A solution of 0.50 g of (-)-epinephrine dissolved in 10.0 mL of dilute aqueous HCl was placed in a  20-cm polarimeter tube. Using the sodium D line, the rotation was found to be -5.1° at 25 °C. Determine the specific rotation of epinephrine. Solution: Specific rotation can be determined with a formula: Where  a  is an observed rotation (degrees),  c is a concentration (g/mL) and  l is the length of the tube (dm). T = 25°C λ=D, that means a sodium line (589 nm) Answer:  specific rotation of epinephrine is – 51.

Index of Hydrogen Deficiency (IHD)

Alkanes are saturated organic compounds with number of hydrogens 2n + 2 (n is number of carbons). All organic compounds that have less hydrogens than 2n+2 have a degree of unsaturation:  The hydrogen deficiency index (HDI) or Index of hydrigen deficiency (IDH) is a measure of the number of degrees of unsaturation. A compound has one degree of unsaturation for every two hydrogen atoms that are missing. There is a formula to determine IDH: IDH = 0.5x(2C + 2 + N − H − X ) C is number of carbons N is number of nitrogens X is number of halogens For compounds mentioned above: C 4 H 10 HDI = 0.5x(2x4 + 2 + 0 – 10 – 0) = 0 C 4 H 8 HDI = 0.5x(2x4 + 2 + 0 – 8 – 0) = 1   C 4 H 6 HDI = 0.5x(2x4 + 2 + 0 – 6 – 0) = 2 C 4 H 4 HDI = 0.5x(2x4 + 2 + 0 – 4 – 0) = 3 Please pay attention that we can determine IDH as well from brutto formula as from structure. 
Why is organic chemistry so important in the study of biology? Organic chemistry is a science about organic compounds , their properties and reactions and biology studies living organisms. All of them comprised of water, minerals and organic compounds .  It is impossible to understand how works a living organism without understanding chemical processes inside. DNA, RNA, enzymes, amino acids, carbohydrates all are organic compounds that have physical and chemical properties that studies by organic chemistry.
