Question
Chapter 16.9, Problem 15P
Interpretation Introduction
Interpretation:
The specific rotation of an equilibrium mixture of fructose with the given optical
Concept Introduction:
Glucose and fructose are the structural isomers having same molecular formula but different structural formula. These are the types of sugars containing same orientation of hydroxyl groups attached to it.
Specific rotation is the measure of extent of rotation occurs in the molecule by passing a plane polarized light from its solution.

- Honey bees collect nectar which is approximately 10% sucrose and convert it into honey (a concentrated solution of about 40% each of glucose and fructose). They do this conversion by mixing the nectar with the salivary enzyme invertase then busily aerating and fanning the solution to drive off water.
