Question
The incorrect statement about Glucose is : (A) Glucose is soluble in water because of having aldehyde functional group (B) Glucose remains in multiple isomeric form in its aqueous solution (C) Glucose is an aldohexose (D) Glucose is one of the monomer unit in sucrose
Answer: A
💡 Solution & Explanation
Glucose is soluble in water due to presence of alcohol functional group and extensive hydrogen bonding. Glucose exist is open chain as well as cyclic forms in its aqueous solution. Glucose having 6C atoms so it is hexose and having aldehyde functional group so it is aldose. Thus, aldohexose. Glucose is monomer unit in sucrose with fructose.
