    The point of this lab is to determine if a substance contains carbohydrates such as a reducing sugar and/or polysaccharides. This will be done by using Benedict’s reagent and Iodine stain tests. Benedict’s reagent will react to reducing substances in the solution by oxidizing it and changing the structure of the reducing sugar to form a colored precipitate. The color of this precipitate can be used to determine the concentration of reducing sugars in the substance. If the precipitate is blue no reducing sugars are in the substance. If the precipitate is bluish green, green, yellow, or orange it does contain reducing sugars. Iodine stain will be used to determine if the solution contains polysaccharides.…

    While waiting, my lab group and I came up with a hypothesis. We hypothesized that if we were to add salivary amylase to the saltine cracker it would start to digest/break down. We made this hypothesis because by going back to the data table from part I, we knew that saltine crackers had starch because it tested positive. In addition, from previous science classes we had been aware of the enzyme of salivary amylase, so the hypothesis came with relative ease as we were all confident in our hypothesis. After testing the hypothesis by removing the beakers carefully out of the water bath and observing the color, our hypothesis was correct. This is because the indicator that we used to test for sugar (Benedict’s Solution) came out of the water bath a blackish color. Meaning that a quantity of the starch had been chemically broken down into sugars, thanks to the salivary amylase. We knew that there was sugar in the content because if the indicator shows any color other than blue, that means that the substance being tested has sugar presence contained in it.…
