dns or dinitrosalicylic acid has a nitro group in its 3 and 5 positions each.maltose being a reducing sugar reduces the amino group at 3 rd carbon to amino grp and itself gets oxidized. the reduced product thus formed is 3-amino,5-nitro salicylic acid which is orange-red in color.

What is the difference between oxidation and hydrolysis?

Oxidation is a reaction in which an atom, molecule or compound loses an electron. OIL = Oxidation Is Lost; RIG= Reduction Is Gain LEO = Lose Electron in Oxidation; GER = Gain Electron in Reduction (LEO the lion says GER) Hydrolysis is a reaction in which a molecule or compound is broken down, by the addition of a water molecule (it is NOT the breaking of a water molecule into oxygen and hydrogen - that is a different reaction called electrolysis). An example of hydrolysis is the breaking down of maltose into 2 glucose molecules. A molecule of water is added, usually with an acid to catalyse the reaction, into a solution of maltose. You can therefore say that hydrolysis is a type of oxidation reaction, being as maltose loses glucose molecule (hence losing the electrons in the atoms of glucose).


What does maltose and water produce?

Maltose and water produce two molecules of glucose through a hydrolysis reaction. This reaction breaks the bond between the two glucose molecules in maltose, resulting in the formation of individual glucose units.


What is the effect of when Maltese acts upon a molecule of maltose?

When maltase acts upon a molecule of maltose, it catalyzes the hydrolysis of maltose into two glucose molecules. This reaction breaks the glycosidic bond between the glucose units in maltose, allowing for the release of the individual glucose molecules.


What bond is broken when maltose is converted to glucose?

The glycosidic bond between the two glucose molecules in maltose is broken during the conversion to glucose. This bond is hydrolyzed by the enzyme maltase, which catalyzes the reaction.


Is joining two glucose molecules to make maltose an endergonic reaction or exergonic reactions?

Joining two glucose molecules to make maltose is an endergonic reaction because it requires energy input to form a bond between the two molecules.


Maltose gives off what condensation reaction?

lactose + water


What is the name of the reaction given to conversion of maltose to glucose?

hydrolyzation


What would a diagram of an enzyme maltose combines with two glucose molecules to form moaltose?

A diagram would show an enzyme (such as alpha-amylase) binding to maltose and two glucose molecules, facilitating the reaction to form maltose. The enzyme would assist in breaking down the bond between the two glucose molecules, allowing them to combine with the maltose molecule. The resulting product would be maltose formed from the combination of one maltose molecule and two glucose molecules.


How do you make a maltose from two glucose molecules?

Maltose is formed by a condensation reaction between two glucose molecules, resulting in the removal of a water molecule. The two glucose molecules join together with an α(1→4) glycosidic bond. This reaction is catalyzed by the enzyme maltase.


What is the product of the reaction when alpha-amylase acts on amylose?

maltose and glucose


Difference between maltose and cellulose?

difference between cellulose and maltose is that cellulose is (chiefly in technical texts) while maltose is (carbohydrate) a disaccharide, c12h22o11 formed from the digestion of starch by amylase; is converted to glucose by maltase.


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
