No, Benedicts reagent will show positive results if the carbohydrate is a reducing sugar. You will know if it is positive if the sample will turn from blue to green then to orange when you are cooling the solution, which is the last step when you are performing the benedicts test for carbohydrates.

∙ 9y agoBenedict's reagent is typically used to indicate the presence of reducing sugars. Monosaccharides and many disaccharides will also produce a positive reaction. However non-reducing sugars such as sucrose, starches, and more complex carbohydrates will not react with Benedict's reagent.

∙ 12y agoYes. Glucose has an aldehyde group when it's not in it's cyclic form. considering there's a equillibrium between the chain and cyclic form, then the test = positive.

How many grams of glucose are required to produce fifty milliliters of a 0.1 mole solution?
You need 0,9 glucose.
What will most likely happens to a plant that does not receive enough sunlight?
the Calvin cycle will produce less glucose
What is glucose produce for?
the plants will produce glucose if there is any extra food as food comes in sugar and when it is combined with water plus oxygen, it turns to glucose
What chemical does Glucose produce?
Technically glucose is a chemical itself - a molecule with a definite structure.
What does photosynthesis produce with sugar?
glucose
Does using benedicts reagent on honey produce a positive result?
yes

What tests are used to test for the presence of starch and glucose?
for the starch iodine test is performed in which the starch reacts with iodine to produce dark blue colour which confirms the presence of starch. for glucose benedict's and fehling's test is performed. benedict's test: 1 ml sample is mixed with 1 ml of benedicts solution and the heated upto boiling if the colur changes to brick red then it confirms the presence of glucose fehling's test: similarly 1 ml fehling's solution I & fehling's solution II each in taken together and to it 1 ml of the sample is takenon then heated uptill boiling. if the colour changes to brick red the it confirms the presence of glucose.
What kind of compounds produce ions in solution?
Salts produce (metallic) positive catIONS and negative anIONS (of non-metals)
How many moles of H2O are needed in order to produce 1 mole of glucose?
You need to dissolve 180 grams of glucose in water and make it up to 1000ml. this produces 1 M Glucose solution.
Why does the process of glucose produce photosynthesis?
Glucose does not produce photosynthesis, you have it backwards. Photosynthesis produces glucose.
Why does starch produce a negative result with Benedict's reagent?
Benedict test have a negative result in glycogen because glycogen is a polysaccharide. Benedict test is meant for testing reducing sugars. It can also give positive results in the case of disaccharide or monosaccharide.
How do you know that glucose is a compound?
Glucose is a compound made up of the elements carbon, oxygen and hydrogen. Glucose solution in water is a mixture of water molecules and glucose molecules. Mixing them doesn't produce any new substance, and you can separate them without creating any new molecules.
Why is glucose important to science?
because if we do not have glucose we cannot produce a glucose..
What will most likely happens to a plant that does not receive enough sunlight?
the Calvin cycle will produce less glucose
What is glucose produce for?
the plants will produce glucose if there is any extra food as food comes in sugar and when it is combined with water plus oxygen, it turns to glucose
Mitochondria produce ATP by?
They produce ATP by oxidizing Glucose. Energy is stored in glucose.
