You don't provide enough information. There are many reactions that can take place involving sucrose, but it isn't a reaction in and of itself, therefore there is no equation explicitly identified.

o-α-D-glucopyranosyl-1->2-α-D-fructofuranoside

 

It's a non-reducing sugar. By balanced equation, do you mean the synthesis of sucrose from glucose and fructose? The ketone region of fructose (C2) reacts with the alcohol region (C1). The alcohol acts as an electron rich nucleophile which will then attack the ketone portion of fructose which then acts as the electron poor electrophile. On that process, you form a hemiacetal and liberate water.
