Question

Consider the following statement

Statement-I: D–(+)– Glucose and D–(+)– fructose are formed on hydrolysis of sucrose.

Statement-II: Sucrose is an invert sugar.

(1) Statement-I is correct and statement-II is incorrect

(2) Statement-I is incorrect and statement-II is correct

(3) Both Statement-I and statement-II are correct

(4) Both Statement-I and statement-II are incorrect

Answer 1

Correct option is : (2) Statement-I is incorrect and statement-II is correct

\(C_{12}H_{22}O_{11} + H_2O \rightarrow \underset{D-(+)- {Glucose}}{C_6H_{12}O_{6}} + \underset{D-(-)-{fructose}}{C_6H_{12}O_{6}}\)

Sucrose is an invert sugar.
