A disaccharide is two monosaccharides bound together by an ether linkage. Therefore, the product of hydrolysis of a disaccharide is two monosaccharides, or simple sugars as they are usually called. One reason reactions such as this are called "hydrolysis" reactions is because the reaction requires one molecule of water.
Sucrose, or table sugar or cane sugar, is a disaccharide. The reaction of the hydrolysis of sucrose is:
Sucrose + H2O -----> Glucose + Fructose (The reaction is catalyzed by acid in a lab and by the enzyme Sucrase in the human body. The hydrolysis is imperceptibly slow without acid. That is why sucrose doesn't hydrolyze when it's dissolved in plain water.)
What else can I help you with?
What is (DE) value of sucrose when heated with hydrochloric acid?
When sucrose is heated with hydrochloric acid, it undergoes acid hydrolysis to form glucose and fructose. The (DE) value of the resulting mixture will depend on the proportions of glucose and fructose produced during the hydrolysis process.
What is the function of urease?
Urease is an enzyme responsible for catalyzing the hydrolysis of urea into carbon dioxide and ammonia. It is produced by various bacteria and fungi and is important in the nitrogen cycle as it helps organisms utilize urea as a nitrogen source.
What is this chemical reaction fatty acids plus triglyceride plus water?
The chemical reaction is hydrolysis, where fatty acids and glycerol molecules are produced from the breakdown of a triglyceride molecule by water. This reaction is catalyzed by enzymes called lipases.
If iodine was not available how would you tell starch hydrolysis occurred?
One way to detect starch hydrolysis is to observe a zone of clearing around the bacterial growth on starch agar plates. This clearing indicates that the bacteria produced amylase, which broke down the starch in the agar. Additionally, testing for the presence of reducing sugars, such as glucose or maltose, could also indicate starch hydrolysis.
What is the difference between acidic and alkaline hydrolysis?
Acidic hydrolysis uses an acid to break down chemical compounds, while alkaline hydrolysis uses a base. Acidic hydrolysis typically results in the formation of an acid and alcohol, while alkaline hydrolysis results in a salt and alcohol. The choice between acidic and alkaline hydrolysis depends on the specific compound being treated and the desired reaction products.

What is the gummy substance produced from hydrolysis of starch?
dextrinDEXTRIN
Is glycogen a monosaccaride disaccaride polysaccaride?
A polysaccaride.
What reaction produced monosaccharides?
Hydrolysis of polysaccharides is the reaction that produces monosaccharides.
Which gas is produced during hydrolysis of beryllium and aluminium carbide?
hydrolysis of aluminium carbide gives methane gas Al4C3 + 12H2O ---> 3CH4 + Al(OH)3
What monomers are produced from hydrolysis?
Monomers are not joined together by the process of hydrolysis. Dehydration synthesis, or condensation reaction is the process of chemically joining monomers.
What is use to test for protein hydrolysis?
Protein hydrolysis can be tested using specific biochemical tests such as the Biuret test or the Ninhydrin test. These tests can detect the presence of peptides and amino acids that are produced during protein hydrolysis reactions.
Draw the Carboxylic acid produced from the acid hydrolysis of butyl acetate?
The carboxylic acid produced from the acid hydrolysis of butyl acetate is butanoic acid. The reaction involves breaking the ester bond in butyl acetate, resulting in the formation of butanoic acid and ethanol.
What is lactose in the following equation galactose glucose-- lactose water?
Condensation
If an amide produced ammonia upon hydrolysis what would you conclude regarding the structure of the amide?
that the amide is a deprotonated form of ammonia.
