What molecule is considered a byproduct of dehydration synthesis?

Water is one product of every dehydration synthesis.
The reason is that during this kind of reaction, one molecule (say, of glucose) loses a hydrogen atom (H) and thus makes a bond available for reaction with another molecule (say, a second glucose). This second molecule loses a hydroxyl group (-OH) to make a bond available.
The two reactant molecules can now combine, and the H and -OH themselves combine to form a molecule of water. Since the overall result is effectively a loss of water from the reactants, it is called dehydration.

∙ 9y agoSucrose, a disaccharide, commonly known as "table sugar," is a product of dehydration synthesis. It is synthesized from a glucose molecule and a fructose molecule (both monosaccharides.) Both of those have the formula C6H12O6, but when they combine to form sucrose, the resulting formula is C12H22O11. If you take twice the constituents and subtract out the sucrose, you get 1 H2O, which means in order for sucrose to form, a molecule of water is "squeezed" out. That's dehydration synthesis!

What type of molecule is removed during dehydration synthesis?
water
When dehydration synthesis takes place a molecule of lipid is given off?
water
A chemical reaction in which two molecules are bonded together with the removal of a water molecule?
Dehydration or Condensation Reactions dehydration synthesis
When two monosaccharides undergo a dehydration synthesis reaction which type of molecule is formed?
There are a few! A double sugar is called a disaccharide. :) Lactose is one. (This is formed by the synthesis of galactose and glucose, which are monosaccharides.) Maltose is another. (It is formed by two glucose hooking up.) Sucrose is yet another. (Formed by fructose and glucose.) They are all formed through the removal of water, or dehydration synthesis. Hope this helps!!
What is a chemical reaction used by cells to make proteins nucleic acids and polysaccharides in which smaller molecules are joined together by removing an H and an OH to make a water molecule?
This reaction is a dehydration synthesis.
How do you reverse dehydration synthesis?
the opposite of the dehydration synthesis is hydrolysis. it does the exact opposite which is to break apart a molecule by adding a water molecule.
Which bio-molecule is involved in dehydration synthesis?
Dehydration synthesis refers to a reaction where molecules are joined by forming water. One molecule should have an should have a hydroxyl group, while the other molecule should have a hydrogen atom for dehydration synthesis to occur.
How can be dehydration synthesis reversed?
In chemistry, condensation reactions are when covalent bonds are formed between molecules and a water molecule is generated as a byproduct. The reverse of this process is hydrolysis, whereby water is consumed in order to cleave a covalent bond.
Dehydration synthesis involves the synthesis of a large molecule from small ones by?
H20
What synthesis is the polymerization process in which a water molecule is lost in the process?
Dehydration synthesis
What type of molecule is removed during dehydration synthesis?
water
What type of reaction produces monosacchrarides?
Dehydration synthesis, aka condensation reactions.
Is maltose lost by the dehydration synthesis?
No. Maltose is formed by bonding two glucoses together through dehydration synthesis. Dehydration synthesis involves removing the OH group from one molecule or group and an H from the OH group in another group or molecule. This allows the two two bond together, releasing a water molecule from the lost OH and H (H2).
What is a macro molecule formed by?
A macromolecule is formed by dehydration synthesis (condensation reaction).
When dehydration synthesis takes place a molecule of lipid is given off?
water
What occurs when two glucose molecules are chemically bonded and form of maltose?
The process known as dehydration synthesis occurs to join two glucose molucules. As they join, an OH- molecule joins with a Hydrogen to form H20 ( water). The water molecule leaves the new maltose molecule.
