A sucrose solution is said to be optically active because it can rotate the plane of a beam of polarized light. The angle of rotation is proportional to the number of optically active molecules in the path of the polarized light. Expressed mathematically, = [ eqn (2-7) ... For a first order reaction, the following equation holds true.. eqn (2-8) ................
