Memory Based Question 28/Jan/25 Morning shift

a

Both Assertion and Reason are correct and Reason is the correct explanation of Assertion.

b

Both Assertion and Reason are correct and Reason is not the correct explanation of Assertion.

No, glucose does not respond to the 2,4-dinitrophenyl hydrazine (2,4-DNP) test, as it does not contain any free aldehydic group in its cyclic form.

Commercially, Glucose is prepared by hydrolysis of starch by boiling it with dil .sulphuric acid.
