how do you make glucose at home? part of a science fair project!!?

since glucose is a monosaccharide, it is a simple sugar with a formula of C6H12O6. Now, to make glucose very easily, here's a hint. Since glucose is a product of photosynthesis (along with oxygen) just get a plant, put it under a UV light, and voila, glucose. The chemical formula for photosynthesis is (6)H2O + (6) CO2 + Light = C6H12O6 + (6)O2

A classic, but great visual experiment is sucking a hard boiled egg into an erlenmyer flask.  It is done by using the principles of the kinetic theory of matter.  \nAnother cool project might be doing something with dry ice.  Find a place that you can get dry ice and do fun stuff with it, like create smoke, put bubble solution in water and then drop in dry ice to make bubbles that, when you pop, let out white smoke.\n\nAnother idea might be to do some cool colorful reactions.  Make some dye molecules or something.\n\nHope one of these ideas works for you.

I make my own.  I have been a diabetic for 28 years.  I took the log book paper my doctor gave me and made one like it on the computer. Then all I have to do is print one out when I need it.\nIt's very easy to do and pretty cheep too.  All it costs is the paper you printed it on.

i built a simple one using seveal pairs of stainless steel knives and caning jars. It wasnt feasable for practical use, but it was a good demonstration of fuel cell theory. I used solution of water and baking soda. \nThe stainless steel knives were used because stainless steel contains nickle which is a catylyst for the full cell process. (platnuium is much better catylyst, but much more expensuve.) I combined the cells in seriese and ran a curent over them until bubles apear on the knives and then removed the current.\nNext i put a led light over the leads of the cells, and then it lit for about 5 seconds as it absorbed the hydrogen and converted it to electricity.\nIt operated similar to a capisitor in this setup.

I think you can extract glucose from a saturated solution by lowing the solution temperature. The excess solute will crystallize from the solution at the lower temperature. You can filter the mixture to collect the crystallize glucose.\n\nor\n\n You can use the procedure for making rock candy from a sugar and water solution. To extract the glucose from the solution.

that's so weird, we're doing something similar in my bio class...\n\nI would agree with you....glucose should be broken down faster...perhaps theres some error in ur results.\n\nI did the same experiment...and I had glucose produce a little more CO2 than sucrose.

Try dissolving sugar in water then freezing it this is a solid solution. The solute is the sugar and the water is the solvent

You can take many physical and sensory measurements on the dried materials before and after the experiment, such as crystal structure, color, odor, density, pH, approximate hardness/strength (i.e., resistance to grinding). \nYou can measure the temperature it reached when boiling and look up the decomposition temperature in the Handbook of Chemistry and Physics if you can find a copy; probably can find something like it on web. Look up boiling point of solution and be sure you use one of the strengths you find in the actual solution; compare to actual boiling point.\nDepending on the type of sugar, you might be able to use Benedict's test for sugar (ref.)

Here's a site with alot of different ideas and difficulty levels with instructions.  Maybe you can find something here.\n\nOr you can tell us more about what you are wanting to do and what you like and we might be more helpful on here.\n\nhttp://www.all-science-fair-projects.com/

The following link has some good ideas for different projects. \nhttp://www.all-science-fair-projects.com/category0.html\n\nAlso, the following link might help you set up a science fair display board if you have to have one.\nhttp://www.sciencebuddies.org/mentoring/...\n\nA good elementary science fair project is testing the density of various liquids.  All you need is a tall clear glass or vase and various liquids such as... dishwashing detergent, mineral oil, corn syrup, olive oil, water (dyed blue), molasses, or corn oil.  Use at least five different liquids (of different colors... makes the project more attractive) and slowly pour them into the container.  Also, perform the experiment more than once adding the liquids in different orders and note your results.  This project is easy, but it is also very educational and helps to teach the basic concept of density.

Its fairly simple to make using a readily available liquid. I'll leave you to search the Internet then decide if you want to make it by yourself or get help from friends
