Chemistry - Biomolecules Question with Solution | TestHub

Fehling's solution is a chemical test used to differentiate between water-soluble carbohydrate and ketone functional groups, and as a test for monosaccharides. Sugars having a free aldehyde or ketone group can reduce Cu²⁺to Cu⁺. These are called reducing sugars. This property is the basis for Fehling's test to detect the presence of glucose in urine.
