When does a disccharide form?

A disaccharide forms when two monosaccharide molecules undergo a dehydration synthesis reaction, in which a water molecule is removed, leaving a covalent bond between the two monosaccharides. This process typically occurs during carbohydrate digestion and synthesis.


What do monosaccharide and monosaccharide makes?

Two monosaccharides bond together through a dehydration reaction to form a disaccharide. Water is released during this process. For example, glucose + fructose forms the disaccharide sucrose.


How many water molecules would be removed during the formation of a polysaccharides containing 240 monosaccharides?

239 water molecules would be removed during the formation of a polysaccharide containing 240 monosaccharides. This is because each monosaccharide molecule will contribute one water molecule in the dehydration synthesis reaction that forms the glycosidic bond between them.


Only 1 water molecule is added during the process of disaccharides change back to monosaccharide?

This isn't really a question, but ... When two monosaccharide molecules join to form one disaccharide molecule, a molecule of water is released. This is called a dehydration (or synthesis) reaction. So in the reverse reaction, when one disaccharide is broken down into two monosaccharides, a molecule of water must be added. This is called an hydrolysis reaction.


What is the function of a disaccharide?

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.

What link the monosaccharides?

Monosaccharides are linked together through glycosidic bonds formed during a condensation reaction. This linkage occurs between the hydroxyl group of one monosaccharide and the anomeric carbon of another, resulting in the formation of a disaccharide.

What disaccharide breaks into 2 mono saccharides?

All disaccharides break into 2 monosaccharides. 'Mono' meaning one and 'Di' meaning two. Anything with more than two combined monosaccharides would be a polysaccaride.


How a polycharide with 5 monocharide join together by dehydratation synthesis?

During dehydration synthesis, a molecule of water is removed as two monosaccharides join together to form a disaccharide. In the case of joining 5 monosaccharides to form a polysaccharide, four water molecules would be removed in total. A covalent bond, known as a glycosidic bond, forms between the monosaccharides to create the polysaccharide.


What are two monosaccharides bonded together?

Monosaccharide's refer to a class of sugars that cannot be further decomposed to form a simpler sugar. Examples of monosaccharide's are glucose and galactose.

How many water molecules are broken down during hydrolysis?

During hydrolysis, one water molecule is broken down for each bond that is cleaved. For example, in the hydrolysis of a disaccharide into two monosaccharides, one water molecule is used to break the bond between the two sugar molecules.


How many water molecules are released when C12H22O11 is formed?

When made from to monosaccharides: one water molecule 2 C6H12O6 --> C12H22O11 + H2O However when made from CO2 and H2O by photosynthesis 11 molecules water are NEEDED! 12CO2 + 11H2O --> C12H22O11 + 12O2

What is the combination of glucose and galactose?

The combination of glucose and galactose forms lactose, which is a disaccharide commonly found in milk. Lactose is broken down by the enzyme lactase into its constituent monosaccharides during digestion.
