Vedclass · Answer

(C) Mutarotation is a property exhibited by reducing sugars that possess a free hemiacetal or hemiketal group,allowing them to exist in equilibrium between their open-chain and cyclic forms. $Lactose$,$Glucose$,and $Fructose$ are reducing sugars and thus exhibit mutarotation. $Sucrose$ is a non-reducing sugar because its glycosidic linkage involves the anomeric carbons of both glucose and fructose units,leaving no free hemiacetal or hemiketal group. Therefore,$Sucrose$ does not show mutarotation.
