A) oxidises
B) condense with
C) reduces
D) add to
Correct Answer: C
Solution :
All monosaccharides reduce Tollen's reagent into silver mirror. \[\underset{\text{glucose}}{\mathop{\underset{C{{H}_{2}}OH}{\overset{CHO}{\mathop{\underset{|}{\overset{|}{\mathop{{{(CHOH)}_{4}}}}}\,}}}\,}}\,+A{{g}_{2}}O\xrightarrow{{}}\underset{\text{gluconic}\,\text{acid}}{\mathop{\underset{C{{H}_{2}}OH}{\overset{\,COOH}{\mathop{\underset{|}{\overset{|}{\mathop{{{(CHOH)}_{4}}}}}\,}}}\,}}\,+\underset{\begin{smallmatrix} \text{Silver} \\ \text{mirror} \end{smallmatrix}}{\mathop{2Ag\downarrow }}\,\]You need to login to perform this action.
