Detailed Solution

Hydrolysis of d-sucrose results in change of optical rotation because :angle of rotation of l-fructose is greater than that of d-glucose.

Sucrose has a significant positive rotation,  D-fructose has a large negative rotation, The resultant combination is levorotatory because D-fructose rotates more specifically than D-glucose.
