Sucrose on hydrolysis gives:
-D-Glucose-D-Glucose
-D-Glucose-D-Fructose
-D-Fructose-D-Fructose
-D-Glucose-D-Fructose
To solve this problem, we need to understand the hydrolysis of sucrose.Sucrose is a disaccharide composed of -D-Glucose and -D-Fructose. \newline \text{When sucrose undergoes hydrolysis, it breaks down into its constituent monosaccharides.The hydrolysis reaction of sucrose can be represented as:Sucrose-D-Glucose-D-FructoseExplanation:• Sucrose consists of one glucose unit and one fructose unit.• During hydrolysis, the glycosidic bond between glucose and fructose is cleaved.• This results in the formation of -D-Glucose and -D-Fructose.Analyzing the options:• Option 1: -D-Glucose-D-Glucose is incorrect because sucrose does not yield two glucose molecules.• Option 2: -D-Glucose-D-Fructose is correct as it matches the products of sucrose hydrolysis.• Option 3: -D-Fructose-D-Fructose is incorrect because sucrose does not yield two fructose molecules.• Option 4: -D-Glucose-D-Fructose is incorrect because it does not match the stereochemistry of the hydrolysis products.Therefore, the correct option is Option 2.
