Interpretation: The formation of cyclic forms by combining the two simple sugars is to be explained.
Concept introduction: Carbohydrates are sugar molecules. Carbohydrates are carbon, hydrogen, and oxygen-based monomers of ketones and
Answer to Problem 10LC
By joining one sugar's hydrogen atom to another sugar's hydroxyl group, the condensation reaction combines the cyclic forms of two sugar units.
Explanation of Solution
A condensation process can bind the cyclic forms of two sugars together. By attaching one sugar's hydrogen atom to another's hydroxyl group, condensation reactions can combine the two sugar units to form a cyclic structure. The combination of a glucose molecule and a fructose molecule produces a sucrose molecule.
By joining one sugar's hydrogen atom to another sugar's hydroxyl group, the condensation reaction combines the cyclic forms of two sugar units.
