MCQ
It is possible to distinguish between optical isomers by
  • A
    Infrared spectroscopy
  • B
    Mass spectrometry
  • C
    Melting point determination
  • Polarimetry

Answer

Correct option: D.
Polarimetry
d
By polarimetry we can distinguish between optical isomers since optical isomers have different effects on plane-polarised light (light that travels in a single plane).
