Options

  1. AOxidation of D-glucose to gluconic acid.
  2. BFormation of an osazone derivative.
  3. CDespite having the aldehyde group, glucose does not give Schiff’s test and it does not form the hydrogen sulfi
  4. DReaction with Tollens' reagent to form a silver mirror.

Correct answer

C. Despite having the aldehyde group, glucose does not give Schiff’s test and it does not form the hydrogen sulfi

Step-by-step solution

Correct Option is : (C) Despite having the aldehyde group, glucose does not give Schiff’s test and it does not form the hydrogen sulfite addition product with NaHSO 3 .
