The correct Answer is:
To solve the problem, we need to determine the products formed when D-glucose is treated with Tollen's reagent and bromine water. ### Step 1: Understand the structure of D-glucose D-glucose is an aldohexose sugar with the molecular formula C₆H₁₂O₆. It has a six-membered ring structure (pyranose form) in its cyclic form. ### Step 2: Reaction of D-glucose with Tollen's reagent Tollen's reagent (Ag(NH₃)₂⁺) is a mild oxidizing agent that oxidizes aldehydes to carboxylic acids. D-glucose has an aldehyde group at the first carbon atom. When D-glucose is treated with Tollen's reagent, the aldehyde group is oxidized to a carboxylic acid. - **Reaction**: \[ \text{D-glucose} \xrightarrow{\text{Tollen's reagent}} \text{Gluconic acid} \] The product formed (A) is gluconic acid (C₆H₁₂O₇). ### Step 3: Reaction of D-glucose with bromine water Bromine water (Br₂ in water) is another oxidizing agent that can oxidize the aldehyde group of D-glucose to a carboxylic acid. - **Reaction**: \[ \text{D-glucose} \xrightarrow{\text{Bromine water}} \text{Gluconic acid} \] The product formed (B) is also gluconic acid (C₆H₁₂O₇). ### Conclusion Both reactions yield the same product, which is gluconic acid. Therefore, we conclude that: - (A) = Gluconic acid - (B) = Gluconic acid ### Final Answer (A) and (B) are both gluconic acid. ---
