When glucose and fructose combine to be sucrose and water what chemical reaction is taking place?

This is a socalled condensation reaction, more specific it is the disaccharide forming "acetal (α-1) to (2-β) ketal"-reaction in sucrose, which is therefor named:
D-glucopyranosyl-α-(1→2)-β-D-fructofuranoside

∙ 12y agoIt is simply the hydrolysis of sucrose. (hydro means water and lysis mean breakdown)

Formula of glucose and fructose?
The chemical formula for glucose is C6H12O6.
Look at the word equation below: Glucose + Fructose ---> Sucrose + WaterWhich phrase describes the chemical reaction taking place?
Dehydration of simple sugars. :)
What is chemical equations of honey?
Honey contains mostly Fructose and Glucose (with some other sugars and water). Fructose - C6H12O6 Glucose - C6H12O6
What is the name given to the chemical reaction in which two or more hexose sugars combine to form larger units?
When two hexoses, such as glucose and fructose, combine, the reaction is a condensation, because a small molecule is eliminated:glucose + fructose → sucrose + waterMore specifically, when the small eliminated molecule is water, it is a dehydration reaction.(The water is formed when a hydroxyl group -OH of one hexose reacts with a hydroxyl group on the other. Water is formed, and the two hexoses are combined by the remaining oxygen atom -O- )If further sugars add to the chain, the reaction is also polymerization.
What is molecular formula for fructose?
Fructose or fruit Sugar (also levulose or laevulose) is a 6-carbon polyhydroxyketone. It is an isomer of glucose, meaning both have the same molecular formula (C6H12O6), but they differ structurally. Glucose is an aldehyde i.s.o. ketone.For structural formula cf. 'Related links'
Molecules of glucose and fructose combine to form sucrose by doing what?
A condensation reaction.
What comes together to form a disaccharide?
Fructose and glucose combine to form a disaccharide.
What chemical reaction is sucrose plus water glucose plus fructose?
This reaction is called hydrolysis.
What are reactants and products of the fructose plus glucose equals sucrose reaction?
reactants: fructose and glucose product: sucrose
When fructose and glucose are bound together what is the result?
Glucose and fructose chemically combine to form the disaccharide sucrose.
What reaction produces sucrose from glucose and fructose?
Sucrose is formed from glucose and fructose.
What Molecule is composed of glucose bonded to fructose?
The two monomers, glucose and fructose, combine to make the disaccharide sucrose.
Is sugar a pure compound?
Not exactly.Everyday sugar is sucrose, which is a disaccharide. That is a sugar which is made up of two sugar units: glucose and fructose. Glucose and fructose are monosaccharide sugars, which are the smallest unit of sugar. Glucose and fructose are both 6-carbon-sugars, or hexoses and have the same chemical formula, C6H12O6. But their molecular structures are different so that they have different properties: fructose is much sweeter than glucose.Sucrose is produced when one molecule each of glucose and fructose combine together in a condensation reaction, a process in which one molecule of water is removed.Thus glucose + fructose => sucrose + wateror C6H12O6 + C6H12O6 = C12H22O11 + H2O
Formula of glucose and fructose?
The chemical formula for glucose is C6H12O6.
Sucrose plus water equals glucose plus fructose?
sucrose + water = glucose + fructose is the chemical equation for the hydrolysis of sucrose into glucose and fructose.
What is glucose plus fructose?
2 glucose molecules join to form a molecule of maltose while releasing a molecule of water. The reaction is a condensation reaction.
Chemical composition of sucrose?
a molecule of fructose and a molecule of glucose
