An organic compound answers Molisch's test as well as Benedict's test, but it does not answer Scliwanoff s test. Most probably, it is
- A sucrose
- B protein
- C fructose
- D maltose
Answer & Solution
Correct Answer
(D) maltose
Step-by-step Solution
Detailed explanation
Molisch's test is used to detect all kinds of carbohydrates. The Benedict test identifies reducing sugars (mono saccharides and some disaccharides) which have free ketone or aldehyde functional group. Scliwanoff's test is used for detection of fructose or keto group in sugar…
