Sucrose is a secret carbohydrate which product glucose and fructose on hydrolysis.
Why sucrose is known as inverted sugar?
Answer: Since sucrose is dextorotatory in nature having specific rotation angle + 65 degree. When it undergoes hydrolysis of glucose and fructose is obtained. In this picture fructose having space fake rotation minus 92 degree will predominate over the specific rotation of glucose which is + 52 degree has overall solution predominately known as laevorotatory in nature.
Since the configuration of sucrose change from desktop to livo as it is known as inverted or invert sugar. On this basis we can also conclude that never toes exam used to perform this conversion of sucrose into glucose and fructose.
