large molecules often contain carbon. why? - ANSWERthey can readily form bonds with other carbon atoms. this forms a 'backbone'. other atoms can then attach. describe benedicts test for reducing sugars - ANSWERadd equal volumes of the sugar sample and benedicts reagent. heat the mixture in a water bath for 5 minutes. brick red precipitate will form. what is a reducing sugar? - ANSWERa sugar that can reduce (give electrons to) another chemical. describe the benedicts test for non red...
