The question has two statements: statement I (S-I) and statement II (S-II) 

S-I: Glucose give a reddish-brown precipitate with Fehling’s solution because

S-II: Reaction of glucose with Fehling’s solution gives CuO and gluconic acid.

Mark the correct answer as 

Explanation:

Statement I (S-I): Glucose gives a reddish-brown precipitate with Fehling’s solution because...

This statement is correct. Glucose, being a reducing sugar, reacts with Fehling's solution to produce a reddish-brown precipitate of copper(I) oxide (Cu₂O).

Statement II (S-II): Reaction of glucose with Fehling’s solution gives CuO and gluconic acid.

This statement is incorrect. The reaction between glucose and Fehling's solution yields copper(I) oxide (Cu₂O), not copper(II) oxide (CuO). The correct reaction is:

RCHO + 2 Cu²⁺ + 5 OH^- → RCOO^- + Cu₂O + 3 H₂O

Here, the aldehyde group of glucose (RCHO) is oxidized to a carboxylate anion (RCOO^-), and the copper(II) ions (Cu²⁺) are reduced to copper(I) oxide (Cu₂O), which precipitates as a reddish-brown solid.

Therefore, while Statement I is correct, Statement II contains inaccuracies regarding the reaction products.
