Chemistry - Biomolecules Question with Solution | TestHub

Question Explanation:

To find out the correct match of given Column - I  with Column - II.

Concept:

Structure of carbohydrates.

Solution:

(A) Sucrose → both anomeric carbons involved in glycosidic bond → two acetals, no hemiacetal group present, One of the hydrolysis product is glucose→ (P, Q, S).

(B) Maltose → α-1,4′ linkage → hydrolysis gives 2 glucose → (S)

(C) Lactose → β-1,4′ linkage between galactose and glucose → (R, S)

(D) Cellulose → polymer of β-D-glucose linked by β-1,4′ bonds.  One of the hydrolysis product is glucose ,No hemiacetal group present→ ( Q,R,S)
