Which outcome occurs when plane-polarized light enters dextrose solution?

A)Optical rotation of the plane
B)Destructive signal interference occurs
C)Increased solution refractive index
D)Significant chromatic aberration develops

💡 Explanation

Optical rotation occurs because the chiral dextrose molecules cause a phenomenon called circular birefringence; therefore, the plane of polarization rotates. Rather than chromatic aberration or interference, dextrose's chirality dictates optical activity.
