Glucose on reaction with HI gives n-hexane. What does it suggest about the structure of glucose ?

Answer»

Solution :SINCE n-hexane has six carbons connected is a STRAIGHT chain ,therefore , this reaction suggests that GLUCOSE also the six carbon atoms connected in a straight chain.
`underset("Glucose")(HOCH_(2)CHOHCHOHCHOHCHOHCHO)OVERSET(HI.Delta)to underset("n-Hexane")(CH_(3)CH_(2)CH_(2)CH_(2)CH_(2)CH_(3))`
