The test tubes in the photograph contain Benedict's solution and two unknown substances that have been heated. What do the results indicate?

What will be an ideal response?


The substance in the right hand test tube is a carbohydrate with carbonyl groups that reacted with the Benedict's solution to produce a positive test. The left hand test tube shows a negative Benedict's test, so the substance in that test tube is NOT a carbohydrate with carbonyl groups.
