No, sucrose is not a reducing agent. The disaccharide sucrose can be 'inverted' breaking the molecule into the monosaccharides glucose and fructose, both of which are reducing sugars. This is commonly done by enzymatic action.
No, it is not a reducing sugar.
yes
A non-reducing sugar can be hydrolyzed using dilute hydrochloric acid. After hydrolysis and neutralization of the acid, the product is a reducing sugar. So acidic hydrolysis can convert the non-reducing sugars (disaccharides and polysaccharides) into reducing simple sugars.
The disaccharide are sugars, including maltose, lactose, and sucrose, having the formula C12H22O11.
Sucrose is formed from glucose and fructose.Sucrose is formed from glucose and fructose. Glucose and fructose gives positive test for benedict becuz both of them are reducing sugars whereas sucrose is not a reducing sugar so it gives negative test for benedict. On prolonged heating,sucrose will form glucose and fructose (reducing sugars)which ultimately gives a positive result .
Ribose: Ribose is an Aldopentose sugar, and all aldose sugars are reducing sugars. The non-reducing sugars are ketose sugars which contain a ketone functional group. For ex: Ketose = Sucrose. For ex: Aldose = Glucose, Fructose, Lactose
A disaccharide is two monosaccharides bound together by an ether linkage. Therefore, the product of hydrolysis of a disaccharide is two monosaccharides, or simple sugars as they are usually called. One reason reactions such as this are called "hydrolysis" reactions is because the reaction requires one molecule of water. Sucrose, or table sugar or cane sugar, is a disaccharide. The reaction of the hydrolysis of sucrose is: Sucrose + H2O -----> Glucose + Fructose (The reaction is catalyzed by acid in a lab and by the enzyme Sucrase in the human body. The hydrolysis is imperceptibly slow without acid. That is why sucrose doesn't hydrolyze when it's dissolved in plain water.)
glucose and fructose
yes, both glucose and fructose are reducing sugars. but the sucrose is non-reducing sugar although it is formed from two reducing sugars.

The disaccharides Sucrose and Trehalose are both non-reducing sugars.

No, it is a polysaccharide and like other polysaccharides it is a non reducing sugar.

The sucrose does not react with Fehling's reagent. Sucrose is a disaccharide of glucose and fructose. Most disaccharides are reducing sugars, sucrose is a notable exception, for it is a non-reducing sugar. The anomeric carbon of glucose is involved in the glucose- fructose bond and hence is not free to form the aldehyde in solution.
