Detailed Solution

Hydrolysis of sucrose with dilute acid yields an equimolar mixture of D-Glucose and D-Fructose,

Yes, the acidic hydrolysis of sucrose is called inversion reaction. Also the product sugar is known as invert sugar. The hydrolysis of sugar is carried out in an acidic medium. Due to this reason the reaction is said to be acidic hydrolysis of sucrose.

In sucrose, the glycosidic linkage is between C-1 of glucose and C-2 of fructose.

Sucrose is not a reducing sugar and because of the absence of the hemiacetals, it does not undergo mutarotation.
