Vedclass · Answer

(C) - and $L$- configurations are relative configurations assigned with respect to $D(+)$-glyceraldehyde.Both $D(+)$-glucose and $D(-)$-fructose have the same $D$-configuration because the hydroxyl group at the chiral carbon farthest from the carbonyl group is on the right side in their Fischer projection.However,$D(+)$-glucose is dextrorotatory $(+)$,whereas $D(-)$-fructose is levorotatory $(-)$.Therefore,Assertion $(A)$ is true,but Reason $(R)$ is false.

Assertion $(A)$: Both Glucose and Fructose have the same $D$-configuration.
Reason $(R)$: Both Glucose and Fructose are dextrorotatory.
The correct option among the following is:
