Yes, sucrose and maltose are structural isomers because they have the same simple molecular formula which is C12H22O11. This is the formula for a disaccharide, which is two monosaccharides combined together through dehydration synthesis which causes the disaccharide to lose two hydrogens and an oxygen atom, which is why the formula is C12H22O11 instead of C12H24O12.
What else can I help you with?
Give an example of disaccharides?
Sucrose, lactose, and maltose are examples of disaccharides. Sucrose is made up of glucose and fructose, lactose is composed of glucose and galactose, and maltose consists of two glucose molecules.
3 common disaccharides?
Three common disaccharides are sucrose (composed of glucose and fructose), lactose (composed of glucose and galactose), and maltose (composed of two glucose molecules).
What are three examples of disaccharides?
Lactose,sucrose,maltose etc.. (they built up of two sugar units)
How does the molecular formula for sucrose compare to maltose?
The molecular formula of sucrose is C12H22O11, while the molecular formula of maltose is C12H22O11. Both molecules have the same number and types of atoms (carbon, hydrogen, and oxygen), but they are arranged differently. Sucrose is a disaccharide made of glucose and fructose, while maltose is a disaccharide made of two glucose molecules.
Name the three disaccharides and the enzymes that break them down into monosaccharides?
sucrose - common table sugar = glucose + fructoselactose - major sugar in milk = glucose + galactosemaltose - product of starch digestion = glucose + glucose
Do the molecules fit easily together form maltose?
Yes, they do. Glucose and Fructose go through a condensation reaction to make sucrose (since H2O is taken out of the equation). Fructose and sucrose are isomers.
Which monosaccharide is found in sucrose lactose and maltose?
The monosaccharide found in sucrose, lactose, and maltose is glucose.
Examples of disaccharides?
The two main categories of sugars are monosaccharides and disaccharides. Three common disaccharides are sucrose, maltose and lactose.
How does the molecular formula of lactose compare to maltose and sucrose?
The chemical formula for both sucrose and maltose is C12H22O11, therefore the ratio of hydrogen to oxygen is 2H:1O.
Give an example of disaccharides?
Sucrose, lactose, and maltose are examples of disaccharides. Sucrose is made up of glucose and fructose, lactose is composed of glucose and galactose, and maltose consists of two glucose molecules.
Which can not be digested Sucrose maltose cellulose or fructose?
cellulose
What is a food example of disaccharide?
Sucrose, Lactose, Maltose
What is the name of some of the disaccharides?
Maltose, cellobiose, sucrose, lactose...
What are the emperical formulas for maltose sucrose and lactose?
The empirical formula for maltose is C12H22O11, for sucrose it is C12H22O11, and for lactose it is C12H22O11. This means that all three sugars have the same empirical formula.
How does the chemical formula for maltose compare to scurose?
The chemical formula for maltose is C12H22O11, while the formula for sucrose is C12H22O11. They both have 12 carbon atoms, 22 hydrogen atoms, and 11 oxygen atoms, but maltose is a disaccharide made up of two glucose units, while sucrose is a disaccharide composed of glucose and fructose units.
3 common disaccharides?
