Concept Introduction:
Aldehyde: A compound that has a carbonyl group bonded to at least hydrogen atom, for example (
Ketone: A compound that has carbonyl group bonded to two carbons in organic compounds in organic groups that can be the same (or) different, for example
Tollens reagent: This reagent treatment of an aldehyde with this reagent, in which the Ag+ ion is the oxidizing agent, rapidly yields the
Benedict’s reagent: This reagent was extensively used as a test for surges in the urine, which are primarily aldehyde and alpha hydroxyl ketones.

- WHAT ARE THE ADVANTAGES AND DISADVANTAGES OF CARBOHYDRATES IN BIOCHEMISTRY? GIVE AT LEAST 3 FOR EACH AND EXPLAIN. WHAT IS THE PRINCIPLE AND APPLICATION OF BENEDICT'S TEST IN THE TEST FOR REDUCING SUGAR?arrow_forwardGiven Ribose, Briefly explain its expected reaction (based on their structural formula) to the different qualitative tests for carbohydrates which are: (a) Molisch’s test (b)Fehling’s test (c) Bial’s testarrow_forwardGiven Tagatose, Briefly explain its expected reaction (based on their structural formula) to the different qualitative tests for carbohydrates which are: (a)Barfoed’s test (b)Seliwanoff’s test (c) Iodine’s testarrow_forward
- Given Sorbitol, Briefly explain its expected reaction (based on their structural formula) to the different qualitative tests for carbohydrates which are: (a) Molisch’s test (b)Fehling’s test (c) Bial’s testarrow_forwardGlucose is a polyhydroxyaldehyde. Determine the structureof the product of the reaction of glycine with glucose.arrow_forwardGiven ß- Cyclodextrin Briefly explain its expected reaction (based on their structural formula) to the different qualitative tests for carbohydrates which are: (a) Molisch’s test (b)Fehling’s test (c) Bial’s testarrow_forward
- Identify the component monosaccharides of each of the following compounds and describe the type of glycosidic linkage in each.arrow_forwardWhat type of hydrocarbons are their structures? Please describe their stability and chemical reactivity. Fumaric Acid, Capric Acid, Lauric Acid, Myristic Acid, Naphthalene, Diphenyl, Decane, Eicosane, alpha-D-Galactose, alpha-D-Glucose, beta-D-Fructose, and Sucrose.arrow_forwardSeliwanoff's test is a chemical test that distinguishes between aldose and ketose sugars. If the sugar contains a ketone group, it is a ketose. If a sugar contains an aldehyde group, it is an aldose. This test relies on the principle that, when heated, ketoses are more rapidly dehydrated than aldoses. Why is Ketose dehydrated more rapidly than aldoses? what makes Ketose react faster than aldoses? Why Ketose give positive result in Seliwanoff's test faster than aldoses?arrow_forward
- Given Raffinose, Briefly explain its expected reaction (based on their structural formula) to the different qualitative tests for carbohydrates which are: (a)Barfoed’s test (b)Seliwanoff’s test (c) Iodine’s testarrow_forwardPropose a scheme to separate and isolate a mixture containing 4-aminobenzoate, 1,2,4,5-tetrachlorobenzene, and napthalene. Isolate two of the three solids by extraction. (please explain what solvents to use and the process step by step)arrow_forwardDefine the following terms: a. reducing sugar b. alditol c. enediol d. acetal e. ketalarrow_forward
