Interpretation Introduction
Interpretation:
The reason should be determined for why glucose is not good for food preservative.
Concept introduction:
Sucrose is also termed as the common sugar. It is a disaccharide made up of glucose and fructose. The chemical formula of sucrose is C12H22O11. In this, glucose and fructose are bonded via the ether bond. This bond is termed as the glycosidic linkage.
