Question

For 'invert sugar', the correct statement(s) is(are) (Given: specific rotations of (+)-sucrose, (+)-maltose, L-(-)-glucose and L-(+)-fructose in aqueous solution are $+66^{\circ},+140^{\circ},-52^{\circ}$ and $+92^{\circ}$, respectively) (A) 'invert sugar' is prepared by acid catalyzed hydrolysis of maltose (B) 'invert sugar' is an equimolar mixture of $\mathrm{D}$ -(+)-glucose and D-(-)-fructose (C) specific rotation of 'invert sugar' is $-20^{\circ}$ (D) on reaction with $\mathrm{Br}_{2}$ water, 'invert sugar' forms saccharic acid as one of the products

   For 'invert sugar', the correct statement(s) is(are) (Given: specific rotations of (+)-sucrose, (+)-maltose, L-(-)-glucose and L-(+)-fructose in aqueous solution are $+66^{\circ},+140^{\circ},-52^{\circ}$ and $+92^{\circ}$, respectively)
(A) 'invert sugar' is prepared by acid catalyzed hydrolysis of maltose
(B) 'invert sugar' is an equimolar mixture of $\mathrm{D}$ -(+)-glucose and D-(-)-fructose
(C) specific rotation of 'invert sugar' is $-20^{\circ}$
(D) on reaction with $\mathrm{Br}_{2}$ water, 'invert sugar' forms saccharic acid as one of the products

Step 1

Invert sugar is a mixture of glucose and fructose, which is obtained by the hydrolysis of sucrose. So, let's analyze the given options: (A) 'invert sugar' is prepared by acid catalyzed hydrolysis of maltose This statement is incorrect because invert sugar is Show more…
