Solution & Step-by-step Explanation

Despite having a free aldehyde group in its open-chain structure, glucose does not give certain characteristic reactions of aldehydes because it exists predominantly in cyclic hemiacetal forms.It does not react with Schiff’s reagent.It does not form an addition product with (Sodium bisulfite).However, it does react with Tollen's reagent, , and as these reagents shift the equilibrium from the cyclic form to the open-chain form.
