Only 1 water molecule is added during the process of disaccharides change back to monosaccharide?

This isn't really a question, but ... When two monosaccharide molecules join to form one disaccharide molecule, a molecule of water is released. This is called a dehydration (or synthesis) reaction. So in the reverse reaction, when one disaccharide is broken down into two monosaccharides, a molecule of water must be added. This is called an hydrolysis reaction.

Which monosaccharides form polysaccarides?

Polymerization is necessary to form a polysaccharide. Polymerization is a process of reacting monomer molecules together in a chemical reaction to form polymer chains or three-dimensional networks.

Why c12h22o11 is not considered a mineral?

A mineral is a naturally occurring substance that is solid and stable at room temperature, representable by a chemical formula, usually abiogenic, and has an ordered atomic structure- Definition from Wikipedia. Glucose and fructose are monosaccharide sugars. A monosaccharide is the smallest unit of sugar, mono meaning 1. Sucrose is commonly called table sugar and is a disaccharide. A disaccharide is a sugar that is made up of two sugar units, di meaning 2. Sucrose is produced as glucose and fructose are joined together by a condensation reaction. In the process a water molecule is eliminated. See the following equation. C6H12O6 + C6H12O6 => C12H22O11 + H2O glucose + fructose => sucrose + water This process does not occur spontaneously in nature. So we cannot define it as a mineral.
