Question
Assertion $(A)$ : Glucose does not form the hydrogensulphite addition product with $\ce{NaHSO_3}$ .
Reason $(R)$ : Glucose exists in a six $-$ membered cyclic structure called pyranose structure

Answer

 Both $A$ and $R$ are true but $R$ is not the correct explanation of $A$.
Due to the absence of a free aldehydic group, it does not give a reaction with $\ce{NaHSO_3}.$
