Question
Short note on: Maltose
✓
Answer
$\rightarrow$ Maltose is composed of two $a-D-$glucose.
$\rightarrow $
$\rightarrow$ In maltose $C_1$ of one glucose $(I)$ is linked to $C_4$ of another glucose unit $(II).$
$\rightarrow$ The free aldehyde group can be produced at $C_1$ of second glucose in solution and it shows reducing properties
so, it is a reducing sugar.
