Sucrose on hydrolysis gives?
Sucrose on hydrolysis gives?
- A. Glucose+Glucose
- B. Glucose+Galactose
- C. Glucose+Fructose
- D. Glucose+Lactose
Step-by-step solution
Sucrose is a disaccharide made of one glucose unit and one fructose unit linked by an α-1,2-glycosidic bond. Hydrolysis breaks this bond, yielding glucose and fructose.
