Answer:

Copper(II) chloride.

Explanation:

CuCl2 fastens the reaction but does not react with the reactants.

So, it is used as a catalyst.

Hope it is clear.

If satisfied only, mark it as the BRAINLIEST!!

Answer:

The catalyst used for the manufacture of glucose is invertase.

Explanation:

  • We know that cane sugar is sucrose. This can further be broken down to form glucose and fructose.
  • In this reaction, we need a biological catalyst, enzymes, named invertase.
  • The reaction goes as follows:

Sucrose + Water + Invertase(catalyst) → Glucose + Fructose

C_{12}H_{22}O_{16} + H_{2}O + (invertase)C_{6}H_{12}O_{6} (glucose) + C_{6}H_{12}O_{6} (fructose)

  • Glucose and fructose are also known as invert sugar.
  • The formula of glucose and fructose is the same, but they both behave differently in presence of polarized light.

Conclusion:

Invertase is the enzyme (catalyst) used for the manufacture of glucose from cane sugar.
