0 1 . 2 Raffinose is a trisaccharide of three monosaccharides: galactose, glucose and box
fructose. The chemical formulae of these monosaccharides are:
• galactose = C6H12O6
• glucose = C6H12O6
• fructose = C6H12O6
Give the number of carbon atoms, hydrogen atoms and oxygen atoms in a molecule
of raffinose.
[1 mark]
Number of carbon atoms
Number of hydrogen atoms
Number of oxygen atoms
0 1 . 3 A biochemical test for reducing sugar produces a negative result with raffinose
solution.
Describe a biochemical test to show that raffinose solution contains a non-reducing
sugar.
