A) gluconic acid
B) glyceraldehyde
C) saccharic acid
D) glucaric acid
Correct Answer: A
Solution :
Glucose is oxidised to gluconic acid by bromine water. \[\underset{\begin{smallmatrix} | \\ C{{H}_{2}}OH \\ glu\cos e \end{smallmatrix}}{\overset{\begin{smallmatrix} C{{H}_{2}}OH \\ | \end{smallmatrix}}{\mathop{{{(CHOH)}_{4}}}}}\,\xrightarrow{B{{r}_{2}}\,\,\,water}\underset{\begin{smallmatrix} | \\ \underset{gluconic\,acid}{\mathop{C{{H}_{2}}OH}}\, \end{smallmatrix}}{\overset{\begin{smallmatrix} COOH \\ | \end{smallmatrix}}{\mathop{{{(CHOH)}_{4}}}}}\,\]
