List I

(Compound)

List II

(Sweetness compared to Sucrose)
1. Alitame C. 2000
2. Aspartame b. 100
3. Saccharin d. 550
4. Sucrolose a. 600

Let us go through the match:

1. Alitame (List I - 1): Alitame is matched with option c. 2000 in List II. This means that Alitame is approximately 2000 times sweeter than sucrose (table sugar). Alitame is an artificial sweetener that is used as a sugar substitute in various food and beverage products.

2. Aspartame (List I - 2): Aspartame is matched with option b. 100 in List II. This indicates that Aspartame is about 100 times sweeter than sucrose. Aspartame is a low-calorie artificial sweetener commonly used in diet soft drinks, sugar-free gum, and other low-calorie or sugar-free foods.

3. Saccharin (List I - 3): Saccharin is matched with option d. 550 in List II. This means that Saccharin is approximately 550 times sweeter than sucrose. Saccharin is one of the oldest artificial sweeteners and is often used in diet foods and beverages.

4. Sucralose (List I - 4): Sucralose is matched with option a. 600 in List II. This indicates that Sucralose is around 600 times sweeter than sucrose. Sucralose is a no-calorie artificial sweetener that is commonly used in various food and beverage products as a sugar substitute.

These matches represent the relative sweetness of each artificial sweetener compared to sucrose (table sugar), with higher values indicating greater sweetness.
