7Water molecules are held together by [blank_start]hydrogen bonds[blank_end]. This is thanks to oxygen's [blank_start]electronegativity[blank_end], which means that the oxygen region of the molecule is slightly more [blank_start]negative[blank_end] than the hydrogen regions. Water is said to be a [blank_start]polar[blank_end] molecule.
[blank_start]Hydrogen bonding[blank_end] is the attraction between [blank_start]slightly negative oxygen[blank_end] atoms and [blank_start]slightly positive hydrogen[blank_end] atoms, and explains why water is a [blank_start]liquid[blank_end] at room temperature, despite its small size.- Ahydrogen bonds

14When testing for a reducing sugar with alkaline copper(II) sulphate, the reducing agent is [blank_start]the reducing sugar[blank_end]. At a temperature of [blank_start]80[blank_end] degrees C, for a duration of [blank_start]3 minutes[blank_end], [blank_start]Cu2+[blank_end] is is reduced to [blank_start]Cu+[blank_end], by gaining [blank_start]an electron[blank_end]. The new, reduced ion forms [blank_start]copper oxide[blank_end], which precipitates. The colour change is from [blank_start]blue[blank_end] to [blank_start]red[blank_end], and the degree of colour change is proportional to the concentration of reducing sugar.

15You have a biological sample, which has been ground up into a uniform consistency. You then add iodine solution in potassium iodide, and notice that the mixture goes from a yellow colour to a dark blue/black. What conclusions can you draw from the reaction?

19Before testing for non-reducing sugars, you should test for [blank_start]reducing sugars[blank_end]. Next, boiling the sample [blank_start]with hydrochloric acid[blank_end] ensures [blank_start]hydrolysis[blank_end] of the sugars. Then, cool and neutralise with [blank_start]sodium hydrogen carbonate[blank_end] solution.
If there were any non-reducing sugars in the sample, they will have been converted into [blank_start]reducing sugars[blank_end], which you can now test for. A [blank_start]positive[blank_end] result will indicate the presence of non-reducing sugars in the original sample.- Areducing sugars
