All are true or false a)In solution, glucose is in the cyclic acetal form only. b)The driving force for the Wittig reaction is the elimination of triphenylphosphine oxide c)1H NMR spectroscopy, you can tell the difference between an aldehyde and a ketone because an aldehyde has a proton signal between 9–10 ppm.
Carbohydrates
Carbohydrates are the organic compounds that are obtained in foods and living matters in the shape of sugars, cellulose, and starch. The general formula of carbohydrates is Cn(H2O)2. The ratio of H and O present in carbohydrates is identical to water.
Starch
Starch is a polysaccharide carbohydrate that belongs to the category of polysaccharide carbohydrates.
Mutarotation
The rotation of a particular structure of the chiral compound because of the epimerization is called mutarotation. It is the repercussion of the ring chain tautomerism. In terms of glucose, this can be defined as the modification in the equilibrium of the α- and β- glucose anomers upon its dissolution in the solvent water. This process is usually seen in the chemistry of carbohydrates.
L Sugar
A chemical compound that is represented with a molecular formula C6H12O6 is called L-(-) sugar. At the carbon’s 5th position, the hydroxyl group is placed to the compound’s left and therefore the sugar is represented as L(-)-sugar. It is capable of rotating the polarized light’s plane in the direction anticlockwise. L isomers are one of the 2 isomers formed by the configurational stereochemistry of the carbohydrates.

a)In solution, glucose is in the cyclic acetal form only.
b)The driving force for the Wittig reaction is the elimination of triphenylphosphine oxide

d)When an aldehyde is reacted with excess ethanol with an acid as a catalyst it is called hemiacetal
e) You can't use acidic conditions (such as aqueous hydrochloric acid) for the addition of a Grignard reagent to a ketone because the ketone will be protonated and thus unreactive
