A) It is obtained from cane sugar
B) It is not reducing sugar
C) On hydrolysis, it gives equal quantities of D-glucose and D-fructose
D) It gives aspartame when it is heated at \[210{}^\circ C\]
Correct Answer: D
Solution :
Sucrose obtained from canesugar. On hydrolysis of sucrose it gives equimolar mixture of D (+) glucose and D (-) fructose. sucrose\[\xrightarrow[\text{or}\,\,\text{invertase}]{{{\text{H}}^{\text{+}}}}\]D (+) glucose + D (-) fructose In sucrose, glucose is present in the pyranose form and fructose in the furanose form. Further since \[{{C}_{1}}-\alpha \]of glucose in connected to \[{{C}_{2}}-\beta \]of fructose, therefore sucrose is a non-reducing sugar.
