What is fehlings solution?

Fehling solution "A" is copper sulphate solution and Fehling solution "B" is a solution of sodium potassium tartrate and NaOH.


What is a positive result for the fehlings test?

A positive result for the Fehling's test indicates the presence of a reducing sugar such as glucose or fructose in the solution. This is shown by the formation of a brick-red precipitate when the Fehling's reagent is added and heated with the sugar solution.


What does Tollens reagent Fehlings solution 2 4-Dinitrophenylhydrazine and Benedicts solution test for and what are the results?

Brady's reagent (2,4-DNP) forms a orange precipitate for all carbonyl compounds (C=O functional group), both aldehydes (primary) and ketones (secondary). However, recrystalisation of the orange precipitate gives characteristic melting points of the crystal for each carbonyl compound (therefore the presence of an orange precipitate indicates a carbonyl compound and the melting point of the crystallised precipitate indicates the type of carbonyl compound; aldehyde or ketone). Tollen's reagent (diamminesilver nitrate solution) is reduced and forms a silver mirror when heated with an aldehyde. It distinguishes between aldehydes and ketones as ketones do not react (no silver mirror formed) as they can not be oxidised further. Fehling's solution (copper II ions in sodium hydroxide) is reduced from a blue solution (Cu II ions) to a brick red precipitate (Cu I ions) when heated in the presence of an aldehyde. Ketones do not react as they can not be oxidised further. The Benedict's test is used in organic chemistry to distinguish between reducing sugars (brick red precipitate formed) and non-reducing sugars (no reaction).


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.


When a solution is heated and then cooled what happens?

When a solution is heated and then cooled, the solubility of the solute generally increases as the temperature rises, allowing more solute to dissolve. Upon cooling, the solubility decreases, causing the excess solute to precipitate out of the solution in the form of crystals.

What color does glucose indicator turn?

When a glucose indicator, such as Benedict's solution or Fehling's solution, is added to a solution containing glucose and heated, it undergoes a chemical reaction with the reducing sugar glucose. This reaction results in a color change from blue (in the case of Benedict's solution) or deep blue (in the case of Fehling's solution) to a brick-red or orange precipitate. This color change indicates the presence of glucose in the solution.


Why the color of benedicts solution change when heated?

The color change in Benedict's solution when heated is due to the reduction of copper ions in the solution. Initially, the blue-colored Cu(II) ions in Benedict's solution are reduced to form a reddish-brown precipitate of Cu(I) oxide. This color change indicates the presence of reducing sugars in the solution.


What substance was collected by evaporation?

The substance collected by evaporation is typically the solvent that was initially dissolved in a solution. As the solution is heated and the solvent evaporates, it leaves behind the solute in a more concentrated form.


What substance is given off when the salt solution is heated gently?

Water vapor is given off when a salt solution is heated gently. As the solution heats up, the water molecules begin to evaporate, leaving behind the salt particles.


What happens when a saturated solution is heated?

When you raise the temperature of a saturated solution; you can add more solute and make it a super saturated solution because the molecules of the solvent will be able to attract more molecules of solute.


What chemical would you use to test food for glucose?

A fairly simple test is using clinistix- these are used for diabetes testing and available in any chemists, just dip them into any solution thought to contain glucose and they will turn from pink to purple (there are other colours available though)
