Which of the following statement(s) is(are) true ?
Options:(select one or more)
Answer:
B, C, D
Solution:
A. Oxidation of glucose with bromine water gives gluconic acid, not glutamic acid. Bromine water is a mild oxidizing agent that oxidizes the aldehyde group of glucose to a carboxylic acid group.
B. The two six-membered cyclic hemiacetal forms of D-(+)-glucose are -D-glucopyranose and -D-glucopyranose, which are anomers. This statement is true.
C. Hydrolysis of sucrose yields D-(+)-glucose (dextrorotatory) and D-(-)-fructose (laevorotatory). This statement is true.
D. Monosaccharides are the simplest sugars and cannot be hydrolyzed into smaller polyhydroxy aldehyde or ketone units. This statement is true.
Therefore, statements B, C, and D are true.
