Glucose had different from fructose is that

A

Does not undergo hydrolysis

B

Gives silver mirror with Tollen's reagent

C

Monosaccharide

D

None of these

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
D

Although fructose has a ketone group, it does reduce Tollen’s reagent. Reduction occurs because the Tollen’s reagent is basic and fructose readily isomerises into glucose and mannose in basic solution both of which contains aldehydic group.
