Why do cacti have ridges?
This helps them store water during dry seasons by reducing the rate of transpiration through the leaves.
Does starch contain reducing sugars?
The Fehling's and the Benedict's Test are the just two of the many tests conducted in identifying reducing and non-reducing sugars. Reducing sugars like the monosaccharides can reduce cupric hydroxide from the reagents used. This is because the reducing sugars have a free oH group at their anomeric carbon that can cause the reduction of mild oxidizing agents like fehling and Benedict solution.In non reducing sugars this oH is involved in glycosidic bond formation.
Is sugar a solute or solvent solution?
Sugar water is a solution in which sugar is the solute and water is the solvent. The water dissolves the sugar.
What is the characteristic of sugar replacers?
BulkingActs as a fat mimectantLow calorieLow glycemic indexDoesn't cause tooth decayHygroscopic (binds water)Non-reducing sugarsFiber-like effectsSweetenerCooling sensation on dissolution
What is the appearance sugar when it is dissolve in water?
The sugar melted and disolved to water.
Is it true that orange juice and lemon juice are reducing sugar?
yes it does. lemon juice has lots of sugar in it. did u no that lemons have more sugar in than strawberrys!
Does water contain reducing sugars or polysaccharides?
Normal bottled water has no sugars. If it is vitamin water or flavored water it will have some.
what is fehling test?
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.
How does sugar prevent spoilage in sweetened condensed milk?
by increasing the osmotic pressure and reducing the water activity.
What is the process during which water is used to produce sugar and oxygen?
Magic, perhaps?Water cannot be used to produce sugar and oxygen.
Can you test for maltose?
Maltose is actually a reducing sugar so a test for reducing sugar could be carried out.1)Add 2cm3 of Benedict's solution to 2cm3 of maltose solution in a test tube and shake.2)Leave the test tube in a beaker of boiling water for 5 minutes.Observations:1)blue solution to green mixture- conclude that there are traces of reducing sugar2)blue solution to yellow or orange precipitate- conclude that there are moderate amt of reducing sugar3)blue solution to brick red precipitate- conclude that there are large amt of reducing sugar
How does 1 factor affect the way sugar dissolves in water?
in simple English if you heat the water, the sugar would disolve easier sugar disolves in water when the sugar particles go into the inter molecular spaces beteen the water molecules so increasing the spaces sure would help you can do this by increasing the temperature or by reducing the pressure another thing is that different types of sugar have different molecule sizes so should have different rates of disolving
What is combined during fermentation to make alcohol?
Yeast sugar and water
How can a plant produce sugar during the night?
because they have sprinkelers to water them
What are the physical properties of juice?
water soluble dry matter, vitamin C, pH, titratable acidity, reducing sugar, sucrose and some minerals
