What else can I help you with?
Are proteins formed by dehydration synthesis?
No; they are formed by translation. Carbohydrates are formed by dehydration synthesis.
How do you represent a dehydration synthesis as a word equation?
A dehydration synthesis is represented as a word equation by stating the reactants and the product formed. For example, the word equation for the dehydration synthesis of glucose and fructose to form sucrose is "glucose + fructose → sucrose + water."
Why are polymerization reations sometimes called dehydration synthesis reaction?
Not all polymerisations can be called dehydration synthesis reactions. However it is a very common way in which polymers can be formed. One way monomer units can join together is by eliminating a small molecule such as water between them, hence dehydration. (Condensation is more usual). Synthesis means building up, so the polymer is built up by losing water.
What molecule is released during construction of a polymer?
During the construction of a polymer, a molecule of water is typically released in a process called dehydration synthesis or condensation reaction. This reaction links monomer units together to form a polymer chain by removing a water molecule for each bond formed between the monomers.
When polymers are built the process is called dehydration reaction . Why is the word dehydration used?
Many polymer are formed by the elimination of a water molecule when two monomers bond, thus it is referred to as dehydration.
A polmer of thousands of simple sugars formed by dehydration synthesis?
Polysaccharides
Are proteins formed by dehydration synthesis?
No; they are formed by translation. Carbohydrates are formed by dehydration synthesis.
What happens after dehydration synthesis occurs?
After dehydration synthesis, two molecules are linked together by the removal of a water molecule. This process forms a larger molecule, such as a polymer or macromolecule. It is an essential process in the formation of complex biological molecules like proteins, carbohydrates, and nucleic acids.
Are covalent bonds formed in dehydration synthesis?
Yes.
What is a macro molecule formed by?
A macromolecule is formed by dehydration synthesis (condensation reaction).
Formed during dehydration synthesis or condensation polymerization?
Water
When two monosaccharides undergo a dehydration synthesis reaction which type of molecule is formed?
When two monosaccharides undergo a dehydration synthesis reaction, a disaccharide molecule is formed. This type of reaction involves the removal of a water molecule, leading to the joining of the monosaccharides through a glycosidic bond.
What is disccharide?
A disaccharide is a saccharide formed from two monosaccharides by dehydration synthesis.

How do you reverse dehydration synthesis?
Dehydration synthesis cannot be reversed directly. To break down the molecules formed during dehydration synthesis, a hydrolysis reaction is required. This involves adding water to break the bonds between the molecules and return them to their original components.
