Question

Explain the determination of ring size of glucose and fructose in detail.

Answer 1

Hey mate here is the answer to your question

Simple sugars are called carbohydrates. Glucose and fructose are monosaccharides and sucrose is a disaccharide of the two combined with a bond.  Glucose and fructose have the same molecular formula (C6H12O6) but glucose has a six member ring and fructose has a five member ring structure.(C5H12O6)

hope this will be helpful.

Answer 2

Sugars and fructose are made of a five-atom ring each and glucose makes a six-atom oriented ring.

Glucose is comprised the sugar the body needs and utilize to produce energy while fructose is only processed by the life and recommended to be taken in moderate quantity.

Plain sugars belong to the carbohydrate group.

Glucose and fructose belong to monosaccharides and sucrose is a disaccharide comprising two combined with a bond.

Glucose and fructose have the identical  molecular formula (C6H12O6) but glucose possess six-member ring and fructose has different with a five-member ring structure.
