A) Galactose
B) Maltose
C) Sucrose
D) None
Correct Answer: B
Solution :
Maltose, gives only glucose, on hydrolysis as it is a disaccharide formed by 2 molecules of glucose. \[\underset{maltose}{\mathop{{{C}_{12}}{{H}_{12}}{{O}_{11}}}}\,\xrightarrow[{{H}^{+}}]{{{H}_{2}}O}2{{C}_{6}}{{H}_{12}}{{O}_{6}}\] Sucrose gives glucose and fructose, while galactose gives glucose and lactose, on hydrolysis.
