Why can't the Benedict's test easily detect the sugar units of a starch? How does the Iodine test detect starch? (be specific!) b. Why can't the sugar units of a monosaccharide solution be detected with Iodine? (hint: "because it's not designed to" is not the answer I'm looking for!) 3. а. 4. a. What was different about the two protein solutions? b. How does the Biuret indicator detect proteins (and thus only one of the protein solutions)?
Explain why concentration of sucrose should not be too high or too low in syrups?
