Question

How many asymmetric carbon atoms are present in D (+) glucose?​

Answer 1

Answer:

Asymmetric Carbon Atoms

Glucose has an aldehyde group (-CHO) on carbon atom number one and is therefore called an “aldose,” also it has six carbon atoms (a hexose) so it can be called an “aldohexose.” The reactive group on fructose, however, is a ketone group (-C=0) on carbon number two.
