Question
Chapter 7.6, Problem 3E
Interpretation Introduction
Interpretation:
Whether the rotation is (+) or (-) needs to be determined if the observed rotation is 1800.
Concept Introduction :
If a solution is capable of rotating the plane of polarized light, it is said to be an optical active solution and this capability is known as an optical activity.
