Polarimeter

Theme

Theme:

 The participants will construct a detection instrument with a container for the fluid, polarizers and some electronic components like a photoresistor, a power supply module and an OLED display. With this device they can measure the concentration of sugar in a variety of solutions and soft drinks and find out how unhealthy our nutrition really is.

The participants will use the phenomena of polarisation of light to determine the concentration of sugar in an aqueous solution.
