Question

On hydrolysis maltose gives :
(a) Glucose + Galactise
(b) Glucose + Fructose
(c) Glucose + Glucose
(d) Galactose + Fructose

Answer 1

On hydrolysis, maltose gives glucose with the help of maltase enzyme which works as a catalysis of the hydrolysis of the glycoside bond.

Maltase is a disaccharide which will reduce sugar giving two molecules of glucose on hydrolysis.

It will give alpha-D-glucose and alpha-D-glucose.

The equation followed by it is:

C12H22O11 + H2O with hydrolysis gives 2C6H12O6
