Glucose gives silver mirror with ammoniacal silver nitrate because it has
- A aldehyde group
- B ester group
- C ketone group
- D alcoholic silver nitrate
Answer & Solution
Correct Answer
(A) aldehyde group
Step-by-step Solution
Detailed explanation
Glucose gives silver mirror with ammoniacal silver nitrate because of presence of \(-\) CHO group (aldehyde group) in the structure of glucose.
\(
\mathrm{CH}_{2} \mathrm{OH}(\mathrm{CHOH})_{4} \mathrm{CHO}+\mathrm{Ag}_{2} \mathrm{O}
\)

\(
\mathrm{CH}_{2} \mathrm{OH}(\mathrm{CHOH})_{4} \mathrm{CHO}+\mathrm{Ag}_{2} \mathrm{O}
\)
