Sucrose on hydrolysis gives :
- -D-Glucose + -D-Glucose
- -D-Glucose + -D-Fructose
- -D-Fructose + -D-Fructose
- -D-Glucose + -D-Fructose
Answer
(2) -D-Glucose + -D-Fructose
Solution
As per NCERT, sucrose is composed of -D-glucose and -D-fructose units joined by a glycosidic linkage between C1 of -D-glucose and C2 of -D-fructose.
on hydrolysis it gives an equimolar mixture of -D-glucose and -D-fructose.
