Solution
Assertion is correct statement and reason is wrong. statement.
Explanation:
Glucose is correctly named as D(+)-glucose. ‘D’ before the name of glucose represents the configuration whereas ‘(+)’ represents dextrorotatory nature of the molecule. The letters ‘D’ or ‘L’ before the name of any compound indicate the relative configuration of a particular stereoisomer.
