Experiment 11: CLASSIFICATION OF CARBOHYDRATES

1

Data Collection and Results Pages Name: __________________________ Date: ___________________ Pre-lab Preparations: Review the information in your textbook on carbohydrates (sugars). You may also use the Internet for assistance, if necessary. Allow plenty of time for your pre-lab preparation! 1. Fill in Table 11.1 based on the discussion provided in the Introduction prior to beginning the lab.

2. Draw the cyclic forms (not the Fischer projections) of glucose, fructose, sucrose, and lactose in the space below. Label each clearly by name, and identify each as an acetal, ketal, hemiacetal or hemiketal.

3. Use check marks to classify each of the knowns in Table 11.2 prior to beginning the lab. You will fill out the last row after you have performed the experiment. (There should be more than 1 check mark in each row.)

Post-lab Analysis: 5. Fill in Table 11.4 after the experiment has finished. Use your information from above sections to summarize observations by placing a “+” for a positive result and a “-“ for a negative result. Determine the identity of the unknown carbohydrate.
