Step-by-step explanation:

A small amount of Benedict's reagent is added and the solution begins to cool. In the next 10 minutes, the solution changes colour. if it turns blue, there is no glucose present in it.

As it is heated, it turns yellow. The hotter the colour of the reagent, the higher the concentration of reducing sugar. E.T.C.

There is more,e.t.c.
