Popis: It is experimentally established that a contactless exposure of liquids representing the homologous series of alkanes to a high-strength electric field leads to the appearance of an optical anisotropy. The effect, related to a field-induced partial ordering (orientation) of extended molecules, is more clearly manifested in the liquids possessing higher molecular masses (longer molecules).
