They are reducing sugars not because the can get reduced but because they can become oxidized and therefore reduce other molecules.

would been easier to understand if chair confirmation wasnt used.. easier to see in ring formation

yeah theres an error on the maltose on the left D glucose, the #4 OH has to be pointing down and not up (or else its galactose :/ )

C1 in the second glucose should be axial not equatorial, because : Maltose = Alpha glucose + Alpha glucose.
The C4 in the first glucose should be down not up. Thank you and good luck.

Doesn't the sucrose produce a ketal from fructose's anomeric carbon- not an acetal?

[@mmaking8664]

Is the sucrose you showed an alpha or beta glycosidic link?
