Fehling’s solution is used in chemistry to detect the presence of reducing sugars. It is composed of two separate solutions that are mixed in equal volumes just before use.
Fehling’s Solution 1
- Composition: This solution contains copper(II) sulfate (CuSO₄).
- Appearance: It is a deep blue solution.
- Preparation: Typically prepared by dissolving copper(II) sulfate in water.
Fehling’s Solution 2
- Composition: This solution contains a mixture of potassium sodium tartrate (Rochelle salt) and sodium hydroxide (NaOH).
- Appearance: It is a clear, colorless solution.
- Preparation: Potassium sodium tartrate and sodium hydroxide are dissolved in water.

ToggleUses of Fehling Solution 1 and 2
Detection of Reducing Sugars
Fehling’s solutions are commonly used to test for the presence of reducing sugars in various samples, such as:
- Food Products: To identify the presence of sugars like glucose and fructose in foods and beverages.
- Biological Samples: To detect reducing sugars in blood or urine samples, which can be important for diagnosing conditions like diabetes.
- Chemical Research: In organic chemistry labs to analyze carbohydrates and other compounds.
Distinguishing Aldehydes from Ketones
Fehling’s solutions are used to differentiate between aldehydes and ketones:
- Aldehydes: These will react with Fehling’s solution, reducing the copper(II) ions to copper(I) oxide, resulting in a red precipitate.
- Ketones: These generally do not react with Fehling’s solution, so no color change occurs.
Educational Demonstrations
- Teaching Tool: Fehling’s solutions are often used in educational settings to demonstrate redox reactions and the properties of reducing sugars.
Quality Control in Manufacturing
- Food and Beverage Industry: Used to monitor sugar content in products.
- Pharmaceuticals: To ensure the purity and composition of certain medicinal preparations.
Analytical Chemistry
- Qualitative Analysis: Used in analytical chemistry for qualitative tests to identify the presence of specific functional groups or compounds.

Aluminum Carbonate 250g
Aluminum carbonate is a chemical compound with the formula Al2(CO3)3. It is a white, crystalline solid that is insoluble in water. Aluminum carbonate is not commonly encountered in pure form due to its high instability, especially in the presence of water and carbon dioxide. Instead, it tends to decompose into aluminum hydroxide and carbon dioxide when exposed to moisture or acidic conditions.
Aluminum Hydroxide 250gm
Aluminium hydroxide is a chemical compound with the formula Al(OH)3. It is an inorganic compound that is commonly used as an antacid to neutralize excess stomach acid, as well as a component in the manufacture of various products, such as ceramics, paper, and cosmetics. It is a white, powdery substance that is insoluble in water and has a low toxicity. When heated, it decomposes to produce aluminium oxide, or alumina, which is used in the production of aluminium metal.
Aluminum Nitrate 500gm
Aluminum nitrate is a chemical compound with the formula Al(NO3)3. It's a salt composed of aluminum and nitrate ions. It's commonly encountered as a hydrate with varying numbers of water molecules associated with each aluminum nitrate formula unit. It's soluble in water and is often used in various industrial processes, including as a mordant in dyeing fabrics and in the production of aluminum oxide. Additionally, it's used in some chemical reactions and as a component in some types of rocket propellants.
