Given below are two statements. One is labelled as Assertion and the other is labelled as Reason.
Assertion: A solution of sucrose in water is dextrorotatory. But on hydrolysis in the presence of a little hydrochloric acid, it becomes laevorotatory.
Reasoning: Sucrose on hydrolysis gives unequal amount of glucose and fructose. As a result of this, change in sign of rotation is observed.
In the light of the above statements, choose the correct answer from the options given below:
- If both Assertion & Reason are True & the Reason is a correct explanation of the Assertion.
- If both Assertion & Reason are True but Reason is not the correct explanation of the Assertion.
- If Assertion is True but the Reason is False.
- If both Assertion & Reason are false.
Answer
(A) If both Assertion & Reason are True & the Reason is a correct explanation of the Assertion.
