The charring of sugar takes place when treated with concentrated \(\mathrm{H}_2 \mathrm{SO}_4\). What is the type of reaction involved in it?
- A Dehydration reaction
- B Hydrolysis reaction
- C Addition Reaction
- D Disproportionation reaction
Answer & Solution
Correct Answer
(A) Dehydration reaction
Step-by-step Solution
Detailed explanation
The charring of sugar is its dehydration process. When sugar is treated with conc. \(\mathrm{H}_2 \mathrm{SO}_4\), water molecules gets escaped and sugar charcoal is formed. Due to its further reaction with acid, smell of \(\mathrm{SO}_2\) is obtained.…
