    Complete hydrolysis of cellulose gives

    A)  D-fructose       

    B)                         D-ribose

    C)                         D-glucose         

    D)                         L-glucose

    Correct Answer: C

    Solution :

    Cellulose is a polysaccharide, composed of\[D-\]glucose units which are joined by\[\beta -\]glycosidic linkages. On complete hydrolysis cellulose produces \[D-\]glucose.         \[{{({{C}_{6}}{{H}_{10}}{{O}_{5}})}_{n}}+n{{H}_{2}}O\xrightarrow{{{H}^{+}}}\underset{\text{D-glucose}}{\mathop{n{{C}_{6}}{{H}_{12}}{{O}_{6}}}}\,\]
