CARBOHYDRATES
0 General formula: Cx(H 2O)y
0 Sugars or Saccharides: ·n1eyare optically active polyhydroxy aldebydes or ketones.
C) Classification :
Carbohydrates are classified as either reducing or non-reducing sugars :
~ Reducing sugars :
- Free aldehydic or ketonic group.
- Reduce Fehling's solution and Tollens' reagent
- e.g., maltose and lactose.
4 Non-reducing sugars:
- Do not have free aldehydicor ketonic group.
- Do not reduce Fehling's solution and Toll ens' reagent
- e.g.• Sucrose.
► On the basis of their behaviour towards hydrolysis :
