A Bennedict's test was performed. Is it possible that positive test reveals that the solution contains sucrose?
Nope. Sucrose is a disaccharide. A Bennedict's test can tell you if a monosaccharide (reducing sugar) is in the solution.

Scientists can collect qualitative data or quantitative data. Which type of data are you collecting when you do Biuret Tests, Bennedict's Tests, Iodine Tests, and Sudan III Tests?
Because these chemicals cause color changes (which is a quality) you are collecting qualitative data.
