jesus_freak79 Posted January 6, 2008 Report Posted January 6, 2008 why does Benedict's solution change colour when reacted with glucose? :eek:(Chemical explanation please)Why is it boiled?:shrug: Quote
Mercedes Benzene Posted January 7, 2008 Report Posted January 7, 2008 The copper ions in solution reduced, forming (I believe) [ce]Cu2O[/ce] which changes the color.It is boiled in order to facilitate the reaction. Quote
