Question:
Sucrose is made up of
Sucrose is made up of
Updated On: June 02, 2025
- glucose-galactose
- glucose-glucose
- glucose-fructose
- fructose-fructose
Hide Solution
Verified By Collegedunia
The Correct Option is C
Solution and Explanation
Sucrose, the common table sugar or cane sugar is made up of glucose and fructose. Its molecular formula is $ C_{12}H_{22}O_{11} $ . On hydrolysis sucrose give rise one molecule of glucose and one molecule of fructose.
$C_{12} H_{22}O_{11} + H_2O \rightarrow \underset{\text{Glucose + Fructose}}{C_6H_{12}O_6 + C_6H_{12}O_6}$
$C_{12} H_{22}O_{11} + H_2O \rightarrow \underset{\text{Glucose + Fructose}}{C_6H_{12}O_6 + C_6H_{12}O_6}$

Concepts Used:
Enzymes
Catalysts of biological systems can be known as Enzymes. Enzymes helps us to perform the huge variety of biochemical reactions that encompass in life are all mediated by a series of activities.
Properties of Enzymes:
Following are the properties of enzymes:
- Enzymes initiate and speed up the reaction
- The enzyme’s activity is ph dependent
- Enzymes have the capacity to forward and reverse the reaction but do not decide the direction of the biochemical pathway
- An enzyme has a particular area on which the substrate interacts to produce the desired product
- Enzyme becomes unstable at varying ph, high temperature and heat
- It have protein like characteristics
- Substrates can be catalyzed with a small number of enzymes
- Enzyme activity represents absolute, relative, group and stereo specificities
- Some enzymes perform regulatory function
- It minimise activation energy (Ea)
- The enzymes remain unaffected before and after the product formation and it can be reused
- They are soluble both in water and NaCl.
