An acid is generally defined as a substance that is able to lower the pH of an aqueous solution by donating protons to water molecules, turning them into positively charged H3O+ molecules.
Monosaccharides such as glucose, fructose, maltose and lactose are by their very nature not able to donate protons and are therefore not acidic. The same thing goes for disaccharides like sucrose (household sugar) and polysaccharides such as starch and cellulose.

Is table sugar an arrhenius acid?

Is sugar water a acid or base or neutral?
Sugar water is neutral. Sugar itself is neither acidic nor basic, and when dissolved in water, it does not significantly change the overall pH of the solution.
Does adding sugar and bleach to boiling water make acid?

Why did the sulfuric acid react to sugar?
The sugar units have H and OH attached to carbon atoms and sulphuric acid is a strong dehydrating agent (water remover) so it eliminates water from sugar units leaving the pure carbon , as C6H12O6 = 6C +6H2O
Why does sugar turn ito vinegar in salt water?
