(D) The reaction for the inversion of cane sugar is: $C_{12}H_{22}O_{11} + H_2O \xrightarrow{H^+} C_6H_{12}O_6 + C_6H_{12}O_6$. Since water is present in large excess,its concentration remains practically constant during the reaction. Therefore,the rate law is given by: $	ext{Rate} = K [C_{12}H_{22}O_{11}] [H_2O]^0$. As the rate depends only on the concentration of one reactant (cane sugar),it is a pseudo-unimolecular reaction.
