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\[{{210}^{o}}C\]
Correct Answer: D
Solution :
Sucrose is obtained from cane sugar. On hydrolysis, it gives equimolar mixture of D (+) glucose and D (-) fructose. Sucrose\[\xrightarrow[or\,\,invertase]{{{H}^{+}}}D(+)\]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 is connected to\[{{C}_{2}}-\beta \]of fructose, therefore sucrose is a non-reducing sugar.
