Concept explainers
(a)
To provide:
The product of oxidation of D-galactose at
Introduction:
The oxidation reactions are those reactions in which there occurs loss of electron from ions, atoms, or molecules. In this kind of reaction, the donor moiety donates electron to acceptor moiety. In terms of oxygen, oxidation refers to the gain of oxygen.
(b)
To provide:
The product of oxidation of D-talose at
Introduction:
The oxidation reactions are those reactions in which there occurs loss of electron from ions, atoms, or molecules. In this kind of reaction, the donor moiety donates electron to acceptor moiety. In terms of oxygen, oxidation refers to the gain of oxygen.

- Which statements are correct regarding the formation of maltose?A. Hydrolysis reaction between alpha-D-glucose and beta-D-glucoseB. Condensation reaction between alpha-D-glucose and beta-D-glucoseC. Condensation reaction between beta-galactose and beta-glucoseD. Hydrolysis of starch into a di-saccharide product a). A and B b). C and D c). B and D d). B and C e). B, C and Darrow_forwardWhich of the following is FALSE? a. D-altrose and D-talose have the same osazones. b. D-glucose and D-galactose have different osazones. c. Trioses and tetroses cannot form the furfural derivatives because of their inability to form the 5-membered ring. d. Barfoed’s reagent, a weaker oxidizing agent than Benedict’s reagent, can only oxidize monosaccharides.arrow_forwardWhen d-glucose is reduced with sodium borohydride, optically active glucitol results.When optically active d-galactose is reduced, however, the product is optically inactive.Explain this loss of optical activityarrow_forward
- Which of the following glycosidic linkage is found in maltose? a. Glucose (α1 – 2β) Fructose b. Glucose (β1 – 4) Glucose c. Galactose (β1 – 4) Glucose d. Glucose (α1 – 4) Glucosearrow_forwardFrom the abbreviated name of the compound Gal (β1->4) Glc, we know that— C4 of galactose is joined to C1 of glucose by a glycosidic bond. The compound is in its furanose form. The galactose residue is at the non-reducing end. The compound is in the chair conformation. The glucose residue is a β anomer.arrow_forwardWhy are all of the elements in group 18 relatively unreactive, whereasthose in group 17 are very reactive?arrow_forward
