Question
Chapter 22, Problem 20QP
Interpretation Introduction
Interpretation:
The factor that determines the chirality of a molecule and the measurement of chirality by using a polarimeter are to be explained.
Concept introduction:
Optical isomers that are non-superimposable over each other are said to be chiral molecules or isomers. Chiral molecules are optically active isomers as they can rotate the plane of polarized light that passes through the polarimeter.
