When two monosaccharides are put together to form one disaccharide how many water molecules are formed ?

Respuesta :

One water molecule is formed.
The process where 2 monosaccharides joined together is called condensation, and because after the bond, 2 hydrogen and 1 oxygen molecule is left out, therefore 1 water molecule is produced.
Note that when the new product disaccharides is broken down back into 2 monosaccharides, the water molecule is used back.

When two monosaccharides are put together to form one disaccharide, only one molecule of water is eliminated.

Two or more monosaccharides can come together to form a disaccharide, oligosaccharide, or polysaccharide in a type of reaction known as condensation reaction. The monosaccharides are linked together by a covalent bond known as glycosidic bond.

A single glycosidic bond links the two monosaccharides in a disaccharide. The bond is formed as a result of a reaction between the anomeric carbon of one of the monosaccharides and the OH group of the other with the elimination of a water molecule.
