Water is not a disaccharide. Water is H2O, and a dissacharide, which is a carbohydrate, is exemplified by something like table sugar, which has C12H22O11 as its chemical formula. Interestingly, some disaccharides are formed from a pair of monosaccharides by the removal of a water molecule through condensation.

Do two water molecules bond together form a disaccharide?

No. Two monosaccharides (carbohydrate monomers) bond together with a glycosidic linkage with the elimination of a water molecule to form a disaccharide.


What has to happen for a disaccharide to be absorbed?

Hydrolysis must occur before a disaccharide can be absorbed into the bloodstream. A water molecule is added during this process.


What does disaccharide and water make?

Disaccharide and water react to form two monosaccharides through a hydrolysis reaction. This reaction breaks the bond between the two sugar molecules in the disaccharide and adds a water molecule to each resulting monosaccharide.

What does the combination of two glucose molecules result in?

The reaction is a condensation reaction so in addition to the disaccharide water is also a product. N.B. glucose + glucose -> maltose + water (not sucrose) glucose + fructose -> sucrose + water


How is a disaccharide formed from to monosaccharides?

A disaccharide is formed when two monosaccharides undergo a dehydration synthesis reaction, also known as a condensation reaction. In this process, a molecule of water is removed, and the two monosaccharides are joined together by a glycosidic bond. This results in the formation of a disaccharide.
