Answer:
Benedict's test which is meant to detect non-reducing sugar like sucrose from reducing sugars like glucose, fructose or galactose can be used to identify sucrose.
Explanation:
Glucose, fructose and galactose are reducing sugars so they can easily be identified against non-reducing like sucrose. A reducing sugar is a kind of sugar which has a free aldehyde or ketone group. Free aldehyde and ketone groups act as a reducing agent and they are capable of reducing other substances. In this situation, the reducing sugar reduces other substances and themselves get oxidized. In contrast to this, a non-reducing sugar can not act as a reducing agent because it has lack of a free aldehyde or ketone group.
Benedict's test is a test which is used to identify a non reducing sugar from reducing sugars. In this test, a reducing sugar (Glucose, fructose or galactose) is heated with Benedict's solution which leads to the change of color of solution to orange-red/ brick red. But no such color change will be detected if sucrose is heated with Benedict's solution.
