Question

The ability of a chiral molecule to rotate the plane of plane-polairsed light ?
(This question has multiple answer).

• A. Chirality
• B. Optical activity
• C. Recimization
• D. Inversion

Answer 1

Answer: (A), (B)

The correct options are
A Chirality
B Optical activity

The ability of a chiral molecule to rotate the plane of plane-polairsed light is called Optical activity.
Optical activity measured using a polarimeter. A simple polarimeter consists of a light source, polarising lens, sample tube and analysing lens.
Hence option B is correct.
