teste of sucrose
juice or sugarcane or sucrose solution
add a few drop of HCL and boil the test tube genitaly for 1 or 2 minute
this hydrolysis sucrose into glucose and fructose
make the solution alkaline with NaOH
now perform Benedict or falling test with this solution for the presence of glucose
Orange aur brick red PPT is observed in the test tube
positive test with benettic solution show the presence of sucrose in the juice or solution

Certainly, here's a more detailed procedure that includes the steps involving acid and base for breaking down sucrose into glucose and fructose before conducting the Benedict and Fehling tests:
*Aim:*
To test for the presence of sucrose (a disaccharide) by hydrolyzing it into glucose and fructose using acid, followed by testing with the Benedict and Fehling tests.
*Requirements:*
1. Sucrose solution
2. Hydrochloric acid (HCl)
3. Sodium hydroxide (NaOH)
4. Benedict reagent
5. Fehling solution A and B
6. Test tubes
7. Water bath or heat source
8. Bunsen burner (if required)
9. Pipettes or droppers
10. White tile or background surface
*Procedure:*
1. Prepare the sucrose solution: Obtain a solution of sucrose (disaccharide).
2. Hydrolysis with Acid:
a. Take a small portion of the sucrose solution in a test tube.
b. Add a few drops of hydrochloric acid (HCl) to the test tube.
c. Heat the test tube in a water bath or over a Bunsen burner for a few minutes to hydrolyze the sucrose into glucose and fructose.
d. Neutralize the solution by adding a small amount of sodium hydroxide (NaOH).
This will ensure that the solution is neither too acidic nor too basic.
3. Benedict Test:
a. Take a small portion of the hydrolyzed solution in a test tube.
b. Add an equal volume of Benedict reagent to the test tube.
c. Heat the test tube in a water bath for a few minutes. Observe any color change.
4. Fehling Test:
a. Take a small portion of the hydrolyzed solution in a test tube.
b. Add equal volumes of Fehling solutions A and B to the test tube.
c. Heat the test tube in a water bath. Note any color changes or precipitate formation.
*Results:*
Benedict Test:
Positive: Formation of a brick-red precipitate indicates the presence of reducing sugars (glucose and fructose).
Negative: No color change indicates the absence of reducing sugars (sucrose).
Fehling Test:
Positive: Formation of a reddish-brown precipitate indicates the presence of reducing sugars (glucose and fructose).
Negative: No color change indicates the absence of reducing sugars (sucrose).
