A) cupric oxide
B) cuprous oxide
C) saccharic acid
D) Both (b) and (c)
Correct Answer: B
Solution :
[b]When glucose is treated with Fehling solution, then gluconic acid and cuprous oxide are formed. |
\[\underset{Glu\cos e}{\mathop{{{C}_{5}}{{H}_{11}}{{O}_{5}}CHO}}\,+\underset{\begin{smallmatrix} (From \\ Fehling \\ solution) \end{smallmatrix}}{\mathop{2CuO}}\,\xrightarrow{O{{H}^{-}}}\underset{Gluconic\,\,acid}{\mathop{{{C}_{5}}{{H}_{11}}{{O}_{5}}COOH}}\,+\underset{\begin{smallmatrix} Cuprous \\ \,\,\,\,oxide \\ red\,\,ppt.) \end{smallmatrix}}{\mathop{C{{u}_{2}}O}}\,\] |
