Sucrose is dextrorotatory. On hydrolysis it gives equimolar mixture of D-(+) -glucose and D - (-) -fructose. The mixture is overall laevorotatory which is known as invert sugar.

Q. Which is the correct statement?

Sucrose is a homodisaccharide.

On hydrolysis sucrose gives invert sugar.

Sucrose gives osazones formation

Sucrose is composed of two molecules of $D - (+) -$ glucose.

Sucrose is dextrorotatory. On hydrolysis it gives equimolar mixture of $D - (+)$ -glucose and $D$ - $(-)$ -fructose. The mixture is overall laevorotatory which is known as invert sugar.
