Copper (I) oxide: Cu2O
You can prove there is glucose in a sample by using Benedict's Solution. Heat up the sample, and add the Benedict's Solution. Assuming the solution is clear, if glucose is present it will change colour to red, or yellow, or green. If not, it will stay clear.
Benedict's solution, I believe.
When Fehling's solution is added to an aldehyde it turns brick red
nothing
the solution will turn a 'brick red' colour if positive but will stay blue if negative.
Copper (I) oxide: Cu2O
2% glucose solution is considered as a hypotonic solution for that the solution will enter the semi-permeable membrane of the red blood cells causing the cells to explode or burst. Why? It's because RBCs have a higher concentration inside it than that of the 2% glucose solution so the solution will enter the cells.
Boil the solution after adding Benedict's reagent, the solution will turn orange in color. Jitender.
will ribose turn benedicts solution red
orange
Depending on the amount of glucose (sugar) that is present, the solution will turn a certain color. The progression goes as follows: blue (no glucose present), green, yellow, orange, red, and then brick red or brown for a very high glucose content.
because glucose isn't acidic
One way is by polarimeter; glucose and sucrose rotate polarized light in opposite directions. This is assuming your materials are of biological origin and therefore consist of the D-forms of both; if they're synthetic, then all bets are off.
The blue colored glucose indicator is something called "Benedict". Glucose has no color to start off with. Once you add benedict to it inside a testube, you have to heat it up in a waterbath. The color you should get it a green, yellow, orange (you should get this color mostly), orange-red, or brick red depending on how much glucose is in the solution.
