The diagram presented represents hydrolysis of sucrose.
<h3>What is hydrolysis of sucrose?</h3>
The hydrolysis of sucrose generates an equimolar mixture of fructose and glucose, commercially known as invert sugar.
Sucrose is a disaccharide with the formula C₁₂H₂₂O₁₁.
On hydrolysis, Sucrose yields the two monosaccharides, namely;
- glucose (aldohexose) and
- fructose (ketohexose),
However, on dehydration Sucrose produces a complex carbonaceous solid residue.
Thus, the diagram presented represents hydrolysis of sucrose.
