How does the molecular formula of lactose compare to maltose and sucrose?
The chemical formula for both sucrose and maltose is C12H22O11, therefore the ratio of hydrogen to oxygen is 2H:1O.
What are the sugars is a disaccharide?
The question does not make sense. Please clarify. I'll try to answer in general terms: Monosaccharides (single / simple sugars): glucose (AKA, dextrose) fructose (AKA, levulose) galactose & xylose ribose The first three are the ones most folks concern themselves with. Glucose is the primary sugar the body uses and/or stores for energy. Fructose mainly comes from fruits (and a few vegetables) and is processed almost exclusively in the liver. Galactose mainly comes from milk as one half of the lactose (disaccharide) molecule. Disaccharides (combinations of two simple sugar molecules): maltose (glucose+glucose) sucrose (glucose+fructose) lactose (glucose+galactose) There are undoubtedly other combinations of simple sugars, but those are the three you hear about most. Starches and glycogen are long chains of glucose (polysaccharides).
What is the chemical formula for glucose syrup?
Malt syrup does not have a chemical formula. It is a mixture. Sugar and other stuff are in it.
What type of carbohydrate is fructose?
yes. no..it is a sugar! Complex Carbohydrates are made up of two or more simple sugars linked together. The following carbohydrates are disaccharides. Disaccharides are compounds that contain a bond between carbon(1) of one sugar and a hydroxyl group at any position on the other sugar. Sucrose is a disaccharide that yields 1 equiv of glucose and 1 equiv of fructose on acidic hydrolysis.

How does viral organism relate in terms of feeding?
Viruses do not feed, they have no metabolism.
Do monomers in sugar polymers are starch molecules?
Polysaccharides are a chains of carbohydrates (monosaccharides) linked together that are longer than 10 to 20 units. Starch, glycogen, and cellulose are made from glucose. Other polysaccharides are made from a variety of different monosaccharides. Hemicelulose is made from glucose, xylose, mannose, galactose, rhamnose, and arabinose. Pectin is made from galacturonic acid and galacturonoglycan. Food gums can be made from rhamnose, arabinose, glucose, xylose, and galactose.

In terms of geographic themes of location versus place place differs from location in that it focuses more on?
Place focuses more on the unique characteristics and attributes of a particular area, including physical characteristics, cultural aspects, and human perceptions. It delves into the relationships between people and their environment, and how these interactions shape a place's identity, significance, and overall sense of belonging.
