The correct Answer is:
To solve the question regarding the reaction of glucose with periodic acid (HIO4), we will follow these steps: ### Step-by-Step Solution: 1. **Identify the Structure of Glucose**: - Glucose has the molecular formula C6H12O6. Its open-chain structure consists of an aldehyde group (CHO) at one end and five hydroxyl (OH) groups attached to the carbon atoms. 2. **Understand the Reaction with HIO4**: - HIO4 is known to cleave carbon-carbon (C-C) and carbon-oxygen (C-O) bonds in sugars. In the case of glucose, it will cleave the C-O bonds, leading to the formation of smaller aldehydes and acids. 3. **Cleavage of C-O Bonds**: - When glucose reacts with HIO4, the C-O bonds will be cleaved, and oxygen will be added to the resulting fragments. This will lead to the formation of smaller molecules. 4. **Identify the Products**: - The cleavage of glucose will yield: - **Formaldehyde (HCHO)** from the cleavage of the terminal aldehyde group. - **Formic Acid (HCOOH)** from the cleavage of the hydroxyl groups. - As the reaction proceeds, multiple molecules of formic acid will be produced. 5. **Count the Molecules Produced**: - From the reaction, we can determine that: - 1 molecule of formaldehyde (HCHO) - 5 molecules of formic acid (HCOOH) will be formed due to the cleavage of the C-O bonds. 6. **Final Product Summary**: - The final products of the reaction of glucose with HIO4 are: - 1 molecule of formaldehyde (HCHO) - 5 molecules of formic acid (HCOOH) ### Final Answer: The final answer is: - 1 molecule of formaldehyde (HCHO) and 5 molecules of formic acid (HCOOH). ---
