Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation:

The Haworth projection formula of the disaccharides maltose and sucrose is to be drawn. The hemiacetal, hemiketal, acetal or ketal carbons are to be labeled.

Concept introduction:

Monosaccharides are the small units of simple sugars. Polysaccharides are made up of small units of monosaccharides. The carbohydrates with free aldehyde or ketone groups can act as reducing sugars. Under basic conditions, weak oxidizing agents such as Tollen’s reagent and Benedict’s solution oxidize the aldehyde or ketone group of the monosaccharide.
