How is the orginial sugar sucrose different from the resulting sugars glucose and fructose?

Glucose C6H12O6 (simplest sugar)Sucrose C12H22O11 (1glucose and one fructose molecule combined to make a Disaccaride)Fructose C6H120H12 (fruit sugar as well as the sweetest sugar)From a chemical standpoint glucose is the "original" sugar.


Is sucrose formed from frutose and glucose by a rearrangement?

No, sucrose is formed by a condensation reaction between glucose and fructose. This reaction results in the formation of a glycosidic bond between the two monosaccharides. A rearrangement is not involved in the formation of sucrose.


What molecule must be produced each time two glucose molecules are bound together?

Maltose is produced when two glucose molecules join.


Which macromolecule is glucose associated with?

Glucose is actually a monosaccharide, which is the smallest unit of a carbohydrate. Glucose is also bound to fructose to create sucrose, which is a disaccharide (a larger carbohydrate). Finally, glucose is also a component of the polysaccharide starch, which is definitely a macromolecule.


What is produced from the hydrolysis of a disaccaride?

A disaccharide is two monosaccharides bound together by an ether linkage. Therefore, the product of hydrolysis of a disaccharide is two monosaccharides, or simple sugars as they are usually called. One reason reactions such as this are called "hydrolysis" reactions is because the reaction requires one molecule of water. Sucrose, or table sugar or cane sugar, is a disaccharide. The reaction of the hydrolysis of sucrose is: Sucrose + H2O -----> Glucose + Fructose (The reaction is catalyzed by acid in a lab and by the enzyme Sucrase in the human body. The hydrolysis is imperceptibly slow without acid. That is why sucrose doesn't hydrolyze when it's dissolved in plain water.)


When was The Libertines Bound Together created?

The Libertines Bound Together was created in 2006.


Are protons bound together by the strong force?

Yes, protons are bound together by the strong nuclear force.


What is a molecule used by glucose as a piggyback into and out of the cell in the process of active transport?

The glucose transporter is a membrane bound protein that binds to glucose and mediates it's transport into or out of the cell.


Is hydro gen a eletrical conductivity?

Hydrogen has a loose electron and proton, meaning they are not bound together. As a result, the electrical conductivity of hydrogen is considered quite high.


What is a group of atoms held together by energy?

A group of atoms held together by energy is called a molecule. The atoms are bound together by chemical bonds, which are formed by the sharing or transfer of electrons between the atoms. The energy that holds the atoms together is the result of these bonds.


Why are mono Di and poly used in describing the three types of sugar?

Monosacharides are one sugar molecule. Glucose Disacharides are two monosacharides bound checmical -- Sucrose = Dextrose + Glucose Polysacharides are multiple single sugars bound into a more complex molecule.


What is a collection of pages bound together?

A collection of pages bound together is called a book. It can contain written, printed, or blank content, and is typically held together by a cover and spine.
