Concept explainers
(a)
Interpretation: The classification of the products obtained on complete hydrolysis of trisaccharide has to be stated.
Concept introduction: Hydrolysis of tetrasaccharides gives four monosaccharides. Monosaccharides are the type of sugars which cannot be further hydrolysed. If two monosaccharides combine, then it is called disaccharide and if three monosaccharides combine, then it is called trisaccharide.
(b)
Interpretation: The classification of the products obtained on complete hydrolysis of oligosaccharide has to be stated.
Concept introduction: Hydrolysis of oligosaccharides give monosaccharides. Monosaccharides are the type of sugars which cannot be hydrolysed further. If two monosaccharides combine, then it is called disaccharide, if three monosaccharides combine, then it is called trisaccharide.
