Benidicts Solution, Wont change colour
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.

frictose glucose lactose
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.
fructose is non-reducing sugar
No glucose is non-reducing sugar.
yes it is a reducing sugar, it has a free anomeric OH group. thus it can also mutarotate
