A disaccharide is produced by joining 2 monosaccharide (single sugar) units. For the formation of maltose, <span>2 glucose molecules are combined using a condensation reaction, with the removal of water.

alpha-D-glucose + </span>alpha-D-glucose = Maltose + H2O

Hope this answers the question. Have a nice day.

Answer:

The maltose equation is a condensation equation and is expressed by the formula: alpha-D-glucose + alpha-D-glucose = Maltose + H2O

Explanation:

Maltose is a carbohydrate, an organic molecule made up of carbon, hydrogen and oxygen atoms. Maltose is a disaccharide, that is, formed by two molecules of simple glycids (glucose) joined by an acetal bond. This specific bond is called α-1,4'-glycosidic bond. The linkage occurs between C-1 of one sugar subunit and C-4 of the other.

The glucose formation equation is expressed by the formula: alpha-D-glucose + alpha-D-glucose = Maltose + H2O. This is a condensation equation characterized by the release of water in addition to the final product.
