Given below are two statements, one is labelled as Assertion (A) and the other as Reason (R): Assertion (A): Invert sugar is sweeter than sucrose. Reason (R): Invert sugar is obtained by the hydrolysis of sucrose. Select the correct answer from the codes given below:
ಉತ್ತರ ತೋರಿಸು ಮತ್ತು ವಿವರಣೆ
ಉತ್ತರ: (B) Both (A) and (R) are true, but (R) is not the correct explanation of (A)
ವಿವರಣೆ
Per the official key, both are true but R does not explain A. Invert sugar (glucose + fructose from hydrolysis of sucrose) is sweeter because fructose is very sweet; hydrolysis alone does not explain the sweetness.
