Australia is also the only continent that is governed as a single country. It is sometimes informally referred to as an 'island' continent, surrounded by oceans. Our ocean territory is also the third-largest in the world, spanning three oceans and covering around 12 million square kilometres.
Benedict's Reagent is used to detect reducing sugars. What the reagent does is to oxidize aldehydes or alpha hydroxyl ketones. When this happens the color of the reagent turns from blue to colorless by the reduction of copper(II) to Copper(I) that is colorless.
Sucrose is a disaccharide of glucose and fructose. Sucrose contains no free anomeric carbon atom; the anomeric carbon atoms of the two hexoses are linked to each other. Therefore sucrose is not a reducing sugar. Maltose is a disaccharide of two glucose. The first glucose residue cannot undergo oxidation, but the second one can, because it has a free anomeric carbon atom (A free anomeric carbon atom is reactive). Maltose is a reducing sugar.
