The below mentioned article includes a list of three experiments on carbohydrates. 1. Experiment to perform colour tests for carbohydrates (reducing sugars): What are carbohydrates (Reducing sugars)? Carbohydrates are organic compounds containing carbon, hydrogen and oxygen in a ratio of 1:2:1. All sugars (e.g., glucose, sucrose, etc.) and starches are carbohydrates. Monosaccharides can be oxidized […]
In this article we will discuss about the molecular structure of carbohydrates with the help of diagrams. Carbohydrates are organic compounds consisting of carbon, hydrogen and oxygen. They are present in all cellular organisms. The simple carbohydrates, known as monosaccharides, contain the three component elements C, H and O of which H and O are […]
In this article we will discuss about:- 1. Test for Carbohydrates 2. Quantitative Estimation of Reducing Sugars of Carbohydrate. The carbohydrates — most common and one of the constituents of animal body — composed of carbon, hydrogen and oxygen. Chemically carbohydrates are polyhydroxy aldehydes or ketones. Carbohydrates are of three forms: Monosaccharide (one molecule C6H12O6), […]
