Carbohydrate is a starchy food which consist of Carbon, Hydrogen and Oxygen in the ratio of 1:2:1. They are also called hydrated organic compounds because Hydrogen and Oxygen is present in the same amount as in the water i.e. 2:1. It is one of the three main classes of food which on hydrolysis gives Glucose.
A reaction in which two or more molecules combine to form a large complex molecule, with the loss of a small molecule i.e. water. It is the opposite reaction of hydrolysis.
Disaccharides undergo condensation reaction to produce polysaccharide but polysaccharides do not undergo condensation reaction as they are already in a complex form.
Yes, they are connected by the glycosidic bond. A glycosidic bond is a type of covalent bond that joins a carbohydrate to another carbohydrate or other group.
1. Carbohydrates are the most common type of organic compound. A carbohydrates is an organic compound such as sugar strach and is used to store energy.
