Question

Find out the correct option among the following statements. (A) In reducing sugars, aldehydic and ketonic group are not free bonded (B) Maltose and lactose are non-reducing sugar (C) Fehling's solution and Tollens' reagent are the non-reducing sugar (D) All monosaccharides whether aldoses or ketoses are reducing sugar

Tardigrade Admin · Accepted Answer

In disaccharides if the reducing groups of monosaccharides, i.e. aldehydic or ketonic groups are bonded, these are non-reducing sugars, e.g. sucrose. The sugar in which these functional groups are free, are called reducing sugar, for example maltose and lactose.
