It is part of the experiment to determine the sugar present... it does not react with non reducing sugar.

A non-reducing sugar can be hydrolyzed using dilute hydrochloric acid. After hydrolysis and neutralization of the acid, the product is a reducing sugar. So acidic hydrolysis can convert the non-reducing sugars (disaccharides and polysaccharides) into reducing simple sugars.
The non-reducing sugar changes color when hydrochloric acid and hydrogen carbonate crystals because the non-reducing sugar gets oxidized as it gives an electron to the reducing agent.
No glucose is non-reducing sugar.
yes it is a reducing sugar, it has a free anomeric OH group. thus it can also mutarotate
No, it is a polysaccharide and like other polysaccharides it is a non reducing sugar.

It is a chemical reagent used to differentiate water-soluble carbohydrates and ketone functioning groups. Its also a test for reducing and non-reducing sugars.
