Which statement about chirality and optical activity is false?
  1.If a solution shows optical activity, it must have a compound present whose mirror image is not superimposable on the compound itself.
  2.Molecules with plane of symmetry will show no optical activity.
  3.The angle of rotation of plane-polarized light depends on how many chiral molecules does the light interact with while passing through the sample.
  4.Enantiomers will always have opposite signs of optical rotation.
  5.The R enantiomers are dextrorotatory.
