i am sorry .i did confuse them both so does rotation depend on number of moles per liter?this is the formula in the book specific rotation=rotation/l*cl=length of polarimeter tube c=concentration of optically active solution in (gm/l)why is molarity not there in the formula?

Why is specific rotation not a colligative property? i just read that it depends on concentration(gm/litre) but i feel that it should depend on molarity considering the fact that rotation is due to changes in molecular structure...do i have a point or am i just being silly ...can someone help me?
