Cool story, bro. What's your question, though?
In general: It might work. It might not. If it doesn't work, the way in which it doesn't work could range anywhere from "nothing happens" to "something happens, but it's not exactly what you wanted" all the way to "very very bad things happen and somebody winds up calling the insurance company." We can't say without a lot more detail. Ask your lab TA (and NEVER NEVER NEVER take it upon yourself to make substitutions like this unless you have reason to be sure that your substitution will work).
Ammonium chloride (NH4Cl) could be added to an ammonia solution to form a buffer solution. As ammonia accepts a proton (H+) to form ammonium ion (NH4+), the ammonia-ammonium ion pair acts as a buffer system, maintaining a stable pH.
The reagent blank should contain everything that the sample contains, except one variable. That variable could be the active ingredient, the enzyme, the substrate, or some other ingredient that is essential to the reaction. If water is added to all the other tubes, it must also be added to the reagent blank.
If too little acid is added to an alkali, the resulting solution may not reach the desired neutral pH level. This could lead to the solution remaining basic or alkaline.
Distilled water is added to an acid solution to dilute it, making it less concentrated and safer to work with. It helps in controlling the pH levels and prevents the solution from becoming too corrosive or reactive.
Zinc chloride in Lucas reagent is anhydrous to prevent unwanted side reactions that could occur with water present. Anhydrous conditions help to maintain the reactivity and effectiveness of the Lucas reagent in promoting the substitution reactions of alcohols.
You probably mean Millon's reagent. Millon's reagent is a solution of mercury in nitric acid which is used as a test for the amino acid tyrosine. Since proteins contain tyrosine, it is also used as a test for protein. When the test solution is boiled with Millon's reagent a white precipitate (solid) is produced which coagulates and turns red.
Anthrone reagent is prepared in concentrated sulfuric acid. Adding reagents to acid causes immediate dissociation of the reagent and releases heat. If your solution weren't cold, it could generate enough heat to blow out of the flask or bottle.
You could adjust the amount of nutrient added to the solution, dilute the solution with water, or add more water to increase the volume of the solution, which would lower the concentration of nutrients.

The solution could be neutral, acidic or basic depending on the concentration or the volume of the acid or alkali used.

n-5 is an expression, it cannot be a solution. Furthermore, there are infinitely many possible equations for which n = 5 could be a solution - even with the added requirements of the question.
No, different compounds require different reagents for testing due to their unique chemical properties. Using the wrong reagent may not produce accurate results or could even be dangerous. It is important to use the appropriate reagent for each type of compound being tested.
Sucrose. Sucrose is a disaccharide therefore does not have free electrons in the sugar to react with the Benedict reagent. Glucose has free electrons therefore shows positive with the Benedict reagent.
