There are theoretically 16 disaccharides that can be formed from two D-glucose molecules in the pyranose form. This is because there are four chiral carbons in each glucose molecule, and the stereochemistry at each carbon can be differentially linked to form different disaccharides.

If two or more disaccharide molecules combine, the result is a polysaccharide.
Disaccharides are formed when two monosaccharides come together. Disaccharides can be glucose, sucrose, and many other forms of carbohydrates.
Three water molecules are formed when a glycerol molecule combines with three fatty acid molecules in a condensation reaction. Each fatty acid molecule contributes a water molecule when it reacts with the glycerol molecule to form a triglyceride.
When many disaccharide molecules are combined, a polysaccharide molecule is formed. Polysaccharides are complex carbohydrates made up of multiple monosaccharide units joined together through glycosidic bonds. They serve as energy storage molecules in plants and structural components in cell walls.
A disaccharide is the carbohydrate formed when two monosaccharides undergo a condensation reaction which involves the elimination of a small molecule, such as water, from the functional groups. Like monosaccharides, disaccharides form an aqueous solution when dissolved in water. Three common examples are sucrose, lactose, and maltose. Sucrose is made by bonding a glucose molecule and a fructose molecule together, lactose (milk sugar) made from a glucose and a galactose.
