Three water molecules are formed. They form from the leftover hydrogen and oxygen atoms left over from the triglyceride formation.

Six: Converting each hydroxyl group on a molecule into an ester linkage characteristic of a triglyceride molecule releases one molecule of water. Each glycerin molecule contains three hydroxyl groups; therefore, six molecules of water will be formed when making two triglyceride molecules, for a total of six.

Three, because you end up w/ three "OH" and three "H". (oxygen and hydrogen and hydrogen).

If the lipid is a triglyceride, then three water molecules will be produced. The water molecules form from the leftover hydrogen and oxygen atoms from the formation of triglycerides.

What two molecules are produced when two glucose molecules are chemically bonded together?

When two glucose molecules are chemically bonded together, they form a water molecule and sugar maltose. This process is called dehydration synthesis.


What by-product was produced when you linked the two glucose molecules together?

You get a Maltose molecules when linking two glucose molecules. You get sucrose when linking a glucose and a fructose molecule together.


What is removed in dehydration synthesis What kind of bond is made by dehydration synthesis How do you break apart this bond?

Water is removed during dehydration synthesis. A covalent bond is produced by dehydration synthesis. Hydrolysis, the addition of water, can break apart this bond.


Describe the role of water in a dehydration reaction?

Dehydration synthesis is when two molecules are chained together and a water molecule is ejected from the coupling. A hydrolysis reaction is when a water molecule is split and the coupling between two molecules is also split. Dehydration synthesis is the reverse reaction of hydrolysis, and vice versa.


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 chemical reaction form polysaccharides?

Dehydration reaction because it removes the water.


What is the process that makes polymers?

Polysaccharides are formed by the condensation of individual monosaccharides - in the process glycosidic bonds are formed and one molecule of water is released per bond. This is a dehydration synthesis. Formation of proteins by the joining of individual amino acids via peptide bonds is also a dehydration synthesis with one molecule of water being produced per peptide bond.
