    When glucose reacts with bromine water, the main product is   [Pb. CET 2003; BHU 2004]

    A)                 Acetic acid          

    B)                 Saccharic acid

    C)                 Glyceraldyhyde               

    D)                 Gluconic acid

    Correct Answer: D

    Solution :

               Glucose on reaction with bromine water followed by oxidation gives gluconic acid                 \[\underset{\text{Glucose}}{\mathop{{{C}_{6}}{{H}_{12}}{{O}_{6}}}}\,+(O)\xrightarrow{B{{r}_{2}}/{{H}_{2}}O}\underset{\text{Gluconic acid}}{\mathop{C{{H}_{2}}OH{{(CHOH)}_{4}}COOH}}\,\]
