a.
To determine:
Whether the reaction in which a disaccharide breaks into two monosaccharides is condensation or hydrolysis.
Introduction:
Condensation is a reaction in which two molecules combine to produce a large molecule, forming a small molecule such as H2O as a by-product. For example, two monosaccharides combine to form a disaccharide through condensation reaction. Hydrolysis can be the reverse of condensation reaction in which a water molecule is added to break down a large molecule into two comparatively small molecules.
b.
To determine:
Whether the reaction in which two molecules combine forming one molecule, and producing a molecule of water is condensation or hydrolysis reaction.
Introduction:
Condensation is a reaction in which two molecules combine to produce a large molecule, forming a small molecule such as H2O as a by-product. For example, two monosaccharides combine to form a disaccharide through condensation reaction. Hydrolysis can be the reverse of condensation reaction in which a water molecule is added to break down a large molecule into two comparatively small molecules.
c.
To determine:
Whether the reaction in which a glycosidic bond breaks is condensation or hydrolysis reaction.
