Sucrose is a disaccharide composed of an alpha-glucose and an alpha-fructose. It has an alpha 1-2 glycosidic linkage between the two molecules.
One molecule each of glucose and fructose link together to form one molecule of sucrose.

Fructose and glucose
sucrose
The two monomers, glucose and fructose, combine to make the disaccharide sucrose.
Sucrose is a larger molecule made up of two sugars glucose and fructose. These two are about half the size of sucrose.
Glucose and fructose chemically combine to form the disaccharide sucrose.
The disaccharides Sucrose and Trehalose are both non-reducing sugars.

A one word answer would be "YES". Depending on the kind of sugars meant, each kind of sugar has its own chemical formula. Table sugar is sucrose. It is made from two simpler sugars called glucose and fructose. Glucose is also sometimes called dextrose. Glucose is a little less sweet than sucrose, and fructose is a sweeter than sucrose. When sucrose is heated in the presence of an acid (such as vinegar or lemon juice), it breaks down into glucose and fructose, and the resulting syrup is sweeter than sucrose. The syrup is called "invert sugar". Simple sugars can join to form long chains. Glucose units can chain up to form amylose,the starch in corn. There are many different types of simple sugars, and they can combine into many more types of complex sugars. The backbone of DNA is a chain made of sugars.
yes, both glucose and fructose are reducing sugars. but the sucrose is non-reducing sugar although it is formed from two reducing sugars.
The two main categories of sugars are monosaccharides and disaccharides. Three common disaccharides are sucrose, maltose and lactose.
Two. Sucrose is composed of the simple sugars glucose and fructose chemically bonded.
Sucrose (table sugar) is 100% sugar, although it is composed of two separate sugars. Glucose and fructose molecules, are chemically joined to form sucrose molecules.
