14. BIOMOLECULES (HM)
Explanation:
Each of these two forms can be synthesized and isolated as pure compounds.
.The alpha anomer of -glucose has a specific rotation of degrees in water.
.The beta ( ) anomer of -glucose has a specific rotation of degrees. actually, but rounding up to .
And when either anomer is dissolved in water, the value of the specific rotation changes over time eventually reaching the same value of .
The specific rotation of -D-glucopyranose decreases from to
.
The specific rotation of -D-glucopyranose increases from to
.This behaviour is called mutarotation
