which sugar indicates mutarotation ?

You've reached today's free limit of 20 questions. Log in to keep practising for free.
Explanation

Mutarotation is the change in the optical rotation because of the change in the equilibrium between two anomers, when the corresponding stereocenters interconvert. All reducing sugars (glucose, fructose, maltose) exhibit mutarotation.

Which sugar isn’t indicating mutarotation?

You've reached today's free limit of 20 questions. Log in to keep practising for free.
Explanation

Sucrose does not show mutarotation because it is a non-reducing sugar. It is composed of glucose and fructose linked via their anomeric carbons, preventing the free aldehyde or keto group necessary for mutarotation.

one base present in central part of DNA, it’s joined to another base with 3 hydrogen bond, so what is that base ?

You've reached today's free limit of 20 questions. Log in to keep practising for free.
Explanation

The base guanine (G) in DNA forms three hydrogen bonds with cytosine (C). This strong bonding is due to the three hydrogen bonds, making G-C pairs more stable compared to A-T pairs, which form only two hydrogen bonds.

one pyrimidine base present in central part of DNA, it’s joined to another base with 2 hydrogen bond, so what is that base ?

You've reached today's free limit of 20 questions. Log in to keep practising for free.
Explanation

Thymine (T) is a pyrimidine base that pairs with adenine (A) in DNA through two hydrogen bonds. Therefore, the base mentioned in the question is thymine (T).

which reaction isn’t given by glucose ?

You've reached today's free limit of 20 questions. Log in to keep practising for free.
Explanation

Glucose does not give a violet color with Schiff's reagent. Schiff's reagent is typically used to test for aldehydes, and while glucose has an aldehyde group, it does not produce a violet color in this reaction.

mutarotation for aqueous solution of glucose is

You've reached today's free limit of 20 questions. Log in to keep practising for free.
Explanation

Mutarotation of glucose in aqueous solution refers to the change in the optical rotation due to the interconversion between the alpha and beta anomers. The specific rotation of glucose in an aqueous solution is approximately $ + 52.5 ^ ext{circ} $.

glucose known as__ __

You've reached today's free limit of 20 questions. Log in to keep practising for free.
Explanation

Glucose is known as an aldohexose because it contains six carbon atoms and an aldehyde group. The term 'hexose' refers to the six carbon atoms, and 'aldo' indicates the presence of an aldehyde group.
