Optical Activity, Polarimeter and Reason for molecules being Chiral & Achiral

Описание к видео Optical Activity, Polarimeter and Reason for molecules being Chiral & Achiral

Optical rotation or optical activity (sometimes referred to as rotary polarization) is the rotation of the plane of polarization of linearly polarized light as it travels through certain materials. Optical activity occurs only in chiral materials, those lacking microscopic mirror symmetry. In this video I present the basics of chirality and polarimetry.
