Aicharya · Accepted Answer

Invert sugar is an equimolar mixture of $D -$ glucose and $D -$ fructose, which is obtained by the hydrolysis of sucrose
Specific rotation of mixture is the half of the sum of specific rotation of both components, $\frac{+ 52^{o} + (- 92^{o})}{2} = - 20^{o}$

(specific rotation $+ 52 °$ ) $+ D -$ fructose (specific rotation $- 92 °$ ) Sucrose specific rotation $+ 66 °$

$D - f r u c t o s e \overset{B r_{2}, H_{2} O}{\to} N o r e a c t i o n$ .
