Sucrose is a disaccharhide; each monomer unit consists of one molecule of glucose & one molecule of fructose (each of which have the same chemical formula of C6H12O6); they become joined together by a condensation reaction, meaning that one molecule of water (H20) is lost between them. The chemical formula for sucrose therefore becomes C6H22O11

Which one is a polymer amino acid nucleotide monosachride dna?

DNA is a polymer made up of nucleotides, which are the monomer units containing a sugar, a phosphate group, and a nitrogenous base. Amino acids are the monomer units that make up proteins, while monosaccharides are the monomer units that make up carbohydrates.

What is sucrose's electronegativity?

The electronegativity of sucrose is not determined by the sucrose molecule itself, but rather by the individual atoms that make up sucrose. Sucrose is composed of carbon, hydrogen, and oxygen atoms, each with their own electronegativity values. The overall electronegativity of sucrose is a weighted average of the electronegativities of these individual atoms.


What monomers and polymers are examples of carbohydrates?

A monomer carbohydrate, which is a monosaccharide, would be something like glucose, one molecule of a simple sugar. A disaccharide would be sucrose. A polymer carbohydrate, or polysaccharide, would be any starch, which is chains of monosaccharides.


Chemical name for C12H22O11?

Since that's a molecular formula instead of a structural formula, it's impossible to say for certain. It might be sucrose (table sugar/cane sugar), or it might be lactose (milk sugar), or it might be any number of other carbohydrates.
