Water molecules are held together by ( hydrogen bonds, weak intermolecular forces, ionic bonds, London forces ). This is thanks to oxygen's ( electronegativity, larger size, abundance in air, charge ), which means that the oxygen region of the molecule is slightly more ( negative, positive, thermodynamically stable, thermodynamically unstable ) than the hydrogen regions. Water is said to be a ( polar, reactive, electron-dense, nonpolar ) molecule.
( Hydrogen bonding, Electronegativity, Ionic bonding, Covalent bonding ) is the attraction between ( slightly negative oxygen, slightly larger oxygen, slightly negative hydrogen, slightly positive hydrogen, charged oxygen ) atoms and ( slightly positive hydrogen, slightly positive oxygen, slightly negative hydrogen, slightly smaller hydrogen ) atoms, and explains why water is a ( liquid, vapour, solid, gas ) at room temperature, despite its small size.

When testing for a reducing sugar with alkaline copper(II) sulphate, the reducing agent is ( the reducing sugar, starch, copper(II) sulphate, hydrogen ions ). At a temperature of ( 80, 100, 75, 25 ) degrees C, for a duration of ( 3 minutes, 1 minute, 20 seconds, 45 seconds ), ( Cu2+, Cu3+, Cu+ ) is is reduced to ( Cu+, Cu2+, Cu3+, Cu ), by gaining ( an electron, two electrons, a protons ). The new, reduced ion forms ( copper oxide, copper hydroxide, copper(I) sulphate, copper ), which precipitates. The colour change is from ( blue, colourless, white, orange, green ) to ( red, orange, green, blue, colourless ), and the degree of colour change is proportional to the concentration of reducing sugar.

Before testing for non-reducing sugars, you should test for ( reducing sugars, lipids, pH, actin and/or myosin ). Next, boiling the sample ( with hydrochloric acid, in water, in alkaline solution, with Benedict's Solution ) ensures ( hydrolysis, polymerisation, condensation ) of the sugars. Then, cool and neutralise with ( sodium hydrogen carbonate, sodium hydroxide, sodium chloride ) solution.
If there were any non-reducing sugars in the sample, they will have been converted into ( reducing sugars, glucose, water and carbon dioxide, energy in the form of ATP ), which you can now test for. A ( positive, negative ) result will indicate the presence of non-reducing sugars in the original sample.

To test for lipids, first mix thoroughly with ( ethanol, water, hydrocarbon solvent, ammonium solution ). Then, after ( filtering, decanting, distilling, extraction ), pour the mixture into ( water, ethanol, hydrocarbon solvent, Tollens Reagent ).

The two reagents needed to test for proteins are ( sodium hydroxide, sodium hydrogen carbonate, hydrochloric acid, ethanol ) and ( copper sulphate, ammonia, benzoic acid, magnesium sulphate ). The goal is to see whether ( copper, ammonium, hydroxide, magnesium ) ions form a complex with ( peptide, amine, ester, polymer ) bonds. A colour change from ( blue, colourless, purple, pale yellow ) to ( purple, dark blue, brown, light blue ) indicates a positive result.
