What are disaccharides y give an example?

Disaccharides are carbohydrates composed of two monosaccharide units linked by a glycosidic bond. An example of a disaccharide is sucrose, which is made up of glucose and fructose units bonded together. Other examples include lactose and maltose.


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.

Will disaccharides and poly saccharides give a positive result to molisc test?

Yes, both disaccharides and polysaccharides will give a positive result in a Molisch test. The Molisch test detects the presence of any compound containing a significant amount of glycosidic bonds, which are present in both disaccharides and polysaccharides.


Are disaccharides mixtures?

Disaccharides are not mixtures.


Will disaccharides and polysaccharides give positive result for molisch test?

Yes they will. Disaccharides will give a positive result much quicker than polysaccharides, and it also depends on the conditions because they need to be dehydrated by an agent such as concentrated H2SO4 and it so happens that it is much easier to do so on a disaccharide than it is on the polysaccharide


What is the function of disaccharides?

The primary function of disaccharides is as a nutritional source of monosaccharides. Many of the sugars found in foodstuffs are disaccharides.
