Chemistry - Biomolecules Question with Solution | TestHub

Ordinary glucose is $\alpha$-glucose, with a fresh aqueous solution has specific rotation, $[\alpha {]}_D=+110^{\circ }$. On keeping the solution for sometimes, $\alpha$-glucose slowly changes into an equilibrium mixture of $\alpha$-glucose (36\%) and $\beta$-glucose ( $64\%$ ) and the mixture has specific rotation $+52.5^{\circ }$
