    Complete hydrolysis of cellulose gives

    A)  D-fructose        

    B)  D-ribose

    C)  D-glucose          

    D)   L-glucose

    Correct Answer: C

    Solution :

    Partial hydrolysis of cellulose gives the disaccharide cellobiose\[({{C}_{12}}{{H}_{22}}{{O}_{11}})\]. Cellobiose resemblies maltose (which on acid catalysed hydrolysis yield two molar equivalents of D-glucose) in every respect except one \[:\] the configuration of its glycosidic linkage.
