MCQ
The following carbohydrate is
- AA Ketohexose
- ✓An aldohexose
- CAn $\alpha - $ uranose
- DAn $\alpha - $ pyranose
✓
Answer
Correct option: B.
An aldohexose
b
Hint: There is hydrogen at first carbon (Anomeric $C$ ) for aldohexose whereas alkyl group for ketohexose.
Hint: There is hydrogen at first carbon (Anomeric $C$ ) for aldohexose whereas alkyl group for ketohexose.
Explanation
Since there are six carbons in the carbohydrate, it is a hexose. Also, there is hydrogen at anomeric carbon that is the first carbon.Anomeric $C$ is the new chiral center formed after cyclization.It is the cyclic form of D-glucose and as glucose has aldehyde functionality so it is the aldohexose.

Pure water freezes at $273 \mathrm{~K}$ and $1$ bar. The addition of $34.5 \mathrm{~g}$ of ethanol to $500 \mathrm{~g}$ of water changes the freezing point of the solution. Use the freezing point depression constant of water as $2 \mathrm{~K} \mathrm{~kg} \mathrm{~mol}^{-1}$. The figures shown below represent plots of vapour pressure ($V.P$.) versus temperature ($T$).
