Answer:

red

Step-by-step explanation:

Benedict's solution -

It is the chemical composition of copper(II) sulfate pentahydrate , sodium citrate and sodium carbonate .

The solution of Benedict is used to test sugars , like glucose.

The color of Benedict's solution is blue.

The color change is usually from blue to yellow , green , brick red , depending on the concentration of the sugar.

  • In case of low concentration of glucose , the color change is from blue to green / yellow.

  • In case of high concentration of glucose , the color change is from blue to red.
