Answer» Correct Answer - C Glucose on oxidation with bromine water yields gluconic acid. This reaction confirms the presence of aldehyde group in glucose. `{:(" "CHO,," "COOH),(underset|overset|(" "(CHOH)_4)+[O],overset(Br_2-H_2O)to,underset|overset|(" "(CHOH)_4)),(underset" Glucose"(" "CH_2OH),,underset" Gluconic acid"(" "CH_2OH)):}` Here, `Br_2-H_2O` act as an oxidising agent and led to the oxidation of glucose into gluconic acid |
