(C), (D) and (E) only
D
(B), (C) and (E) only
✓ Correct! Well done.
✗ Incorrect. Try again or view the solution.
Solution
(A) Starch $\xrightarrow{\mathrm{H}^{+} / \mathrm{H}_{2} \mathrm{O}}$ Glucose
(B) Cane sugar $\xrightarrow{\mathrm{H}^{+} / \mathrm{H}_{2} \mathrm{O}}$ glucose + fructose (Sucrose) 50\% 50\%
(C) Milk sugar $\xrightarrow{\mathrm{H}^{+} / \mathrm{H}_{2} \mathrm{O}}$ glucose + galactose (Lactose)
(D) Amylopectin $\xrightarrow{\mathrm{H}^{+} / \mathrm{H}_{2} \mathrm{O}}$ Glucose
(E) Amylose $\xrightarrow{\mathrm{H}^{+} / \mathrm{H}_{2} \mathrm{O}}$ Glucose
So, correct options are B, C and E only
