Answer»

Solution :(i) DISACCHARIDES linked through `C_(1)` of the first to `C_(4)`or `C_(6)` of the second component are called reducing sugar. Eg: LACTOSE.
(ii) Disaccharides linked through the glycosidic carbon atoms of each component `C_(1)`of glucose to `C_(2)` of fructose are NON- reducing disaccharides. Eg: Sucrose.
