I've learnt for over 6 years that glucose rotates plane polarized light Right and fructose Left but this is the first time I am actually seeing it! Thank you!
1:15 is there a good explanation for why this rotation occurs due to chiral molecules, preferably on yt, i probably wont have the time to dig into too many textbooks but ill see if the feynman lrctureshas something
u know how time fly it been 11 year since he uploaded this video ,and now i am a first year med student ,if u see this after couples of years bring me back if i am still alife,have a great day and pray for me
The more the better. I usually go for a roughly 50:50 mix of sugar to water by volume (as caster sugar) then warm to speed up dissolution. The more concentrated the solution and the longer the distance the light is passing through, the better Since this video was made I've switched to using a battery operated LED panel as it's getting more and more difficult to get your hands on an OHP. I then page the solutions in sample vials and stand them on top. Students can walk past in smaller classes and look down through the solution. This gives me a long path length so I get a strong effect even if I don't have time to make the most saturated solution
+Naman Karn - That's not helpful either, because it doesn't provide a frame of reference. The direction of deflection will vary according to the observer's position relative to the light beam.
@@Milosz_Ostrow imagine a skipping rope going up and down (rather than around like in the game) The people moving the rope look down the rope and see motion between the 6 o'clock position and the 12 o'clock. If the light wave is rotated it's like they're now moving their hands diagonally so the rope swings between (for example) between the 2 o'clock and 8. Does that help? (incidentally this is somewhat of a simplification... physicists will cringe at this description but it's good enough to explain the phenomena in the video)
chemistry confuses me a LOTTTT especially organic chemistry...... nothing makes sense to me I'm just studying it for the sake of clearing my competitive exam and olympiads

I was so confused before but this video made me clear everything Thank you Sir😇
thanks for this, you explained this better than my own chemistry teacher
Whoa. That was cool. Laevo and dextro rotatory stuff. You made it simple to understand. Great job sir. It's a noble work you do right here.

i am so happy 'bout discovering this channel.........thank you so much
That's amazing. . I didn't understand now I do
Thanks :)

Great demonstration. I think I'm starting to understand chirality. Thank you.
You explained it in the way I wanted. Awesome 😇 thank you so much.
Thank you. I spent a lot of time to see how I could see the rotation of light by sugars.
Great video. Can you say something about how concentrated the solutions should be?

that is a really nice demonstration!!
Superb experiment 👏👏
:0 that was enthralling truly
Where the filter to be placed and moved back and forth?? Please reply dude...
Light source -> polariser -> sugar solution -> second polariser -> eye
Sorry I didn't see this sooner.
i wish if my school taught like this
I'm still no smarter. How is the direction of rotation defined - from the viewpoint of the light source or in the direction of the light source?
the deflection of the Light from it's original direction
+Naman Karn - That's not helpful either, because it doesn't provide a frame of reference. The direction of deflection will vary according to the observer's position relative to the light beam.
look from the frame of reference of the light source...the deflection of the beam seen from here..would be the direction of rotation

Steve mould anybody??
Steve Mould + actual need for understanding this for a physics exam here
Why does the light rotate in the first place?

Usefull
Mix glucose and fructose and form resimic solution and then pass ppl through it 😊
Why the value of sugar solution is different from that of water
Because the sugar solution has the sugar in it :) water is not chiral so did not rotate plane polarised light.
=O in my textbook, it's given that sucrose rotates to the left !
:O That was useful, thank you!
Yeah dude you can't use a retort, you need to put the solute directly between the two. Like a sammich
Nice this video I very love did
Flemistry
very cool
Poga pinda
why does he look like a killer
😂
Good video and very much explained in it
Dudd that's so awesome
