Answer:
Reducing sugars are those that have a free or potentially free aldehyde or ketone. In a solution of pH 8 or higher the sugar is capable of reducing certain weak oxidizing agents such as cupric hydroxide along with a resultant oxidation of the carbonyl group of the sugar. Both Benedicts and Barfoeds tests identify reducing sugars. The following reaction is an example:
(reducing sugar)
glucose + 2Cu(OH)2 --------- > Cu2O + 2H2O + glucose
(oxidized cupric ions: blue) (reduced cuprous ions: red)
