A sugar that contains an aldehyde group/s that can be easily oxidised to carboxylic acid/s by mild oxidising agent is known as reducing sugar.

Fluorine is the most electronegative element; therefore, it always shows -1 oxidation state and does not show any positive oxidation state.

 4-Bromo-3-methyl-pent-2-ene

In nitrogen molecule, triple bond exists between two nitrogen atoms. In phosphorus molecule, single bond is present between atoms of phosphorus. Since bond dissociation energy is more for triple bond as compared to that of single bond, nitrogen is relatively inert as compared to phosphorus.

 n-type semiconductor is obtained when silicon is doped with arsenic.

Monossacharides are simplest carbohydrates which cannot be hydrolysed to simpler molecules. They are represented by general formula (CH₂O)_n.

The process of formation of polymer by addition polymerisation of two different monomeric species is called copolymerisation.

(i) Tyndall effect: When a beam of light is passed through a colloidal system, the colloidal particles scatter the light and the path of beam becomes illuminated. This scattering of light by colloidal particles is known as Tyndall effect.

(ii) Shape selective catalysis: The catalytic reaction that depends upon the pore structure of the catalyst and the size of reactant and product is called shape selective catalysis.
