14.9:What happens when D-glucose is treated with the following reagents?
(i) HI (ii) Bromine water (iii) HNO₃

(i) When D-glucose is heated with HI for a long time, n-hexane is formed.

$(C H O H) {\to_{∆}^{H l}}_{} C H_{3} — C H_{2} — C H_{2} — C H_{2} — C H_{2} — C H_{2}$
$|$
$C H_{2} O H$
$D - g u l \cos e$

(ii) When D-glucose is treated with Br2 water, D- gluconic acid is produced.
