Materials Required:
Procedure:
Using a dropper, take a small quantity of Benedict’s reagent.
Add the reagent to the test tube containing banana extract.
Boil the sample over a burner for 2 minutes holding the test tube firmly with a test tube holder.
Keep shaking the test tube as it is being heated.
A brick red precipitate appears, indicating the presence of glucose in the banana extract.
Conclusion:
On boiling banana extract with the Benedict’s reagent, the cupric ion present in the Benedict’s reagent is reduced by the reducing agent, sugar, to form a brick red coloured precipitate of cuprous oxide.
