A student gathers test tubes, a hot plate, Benedict’s solution, and various types of food. Which organic molecule can be correctly identified using this equipment?

Simple carbohydrates

Explanation:

Benedict’s Test is the test for simple carbohydrates, so the students will be able to check the presence of carbohydrates in the various types of food sample.

Benedict’s Test is used to identify monosaccharides and some of the disaccharides.

hydroxyl -oh

alcohols, always polar, can form hydrogen bonds with h2o molecules

carboxyl -cooh  

cargoxylic acids, has acidic properties which is a source of hydrogen ions, found in cells in ionized for with a charge of oh-1

carbonyl > co

ketone if within skeleton, aldehyde if group is at the end of skeleton, k & a may be structural isomers, it determines 2 sugars (ketose & aldose)

amino -nh2

amines, acts as a base, it can pick up h+ ions from surrounding solution, ionized with charge of 1+

methyl ch2

addition to rna/dna affects and gene expression

phosphate -opo3 ²⁻

organic phosphates, contributes to negative charge to, molecule that it is a part of, and potential to react with h20

sulfhydryl -sh

thiols, cross-linking stabilize the protein, and it is structure

-hails tea

explanation:
