Solution

failed
failed

The answer is the third one (or C): reactant; products.

Explanation for each option:

  • Product; products: This is incorrect because sucrose is being broken down, not formed. Therefore, it cannot be considered a product in this reaction.
  • Product; reactants: This is incorrect for the same reason as above. Sucrose is not a product, and glucose and fructose are not reactants in this specific reaction.
  • Reactant; products: This is correct. In the hydrolysis reaction, sucrose is the substance that is being broken down, making it the reactant. Glucose and fructose are the substances that are produced from this reaction, making them the products.
  • Reactant; reactants: This is incorrect because glucose and fructose are the products of the reaction, not reactants.
  • IDON'T KNOWYET: This is not a valid answer in the context of the question.

Summary: In the hydrolysis reaction where sucrose is converted into glucose and fructose, sucrose is the reactant, and glucose and fructose are the products.
