Question
8. a) Four solutions were made up; one eontaining glucose, one
containing starch, one containing amylase (a starch digesting
enzyme) and one containing sucrose. Unfortunately, they
were not labelled, except as solutions A, B, C and D. The
following tests were carried out to identify the solutions.
All solutions were tested with Biuret reagent
Solution C turns purple
Solutions A, B and D remain blue
Solutions A, B and D tested with Benedict's solution
Solutions A and B remain bluelo
Solution D turns red
Solutions A and B incubated with
Solution C and then retested with
Benedict's solution
Solution B turns red
Solution A remains blue
Identify, with reasons, the four solutions.
