Study Notes
Carbohydrate Hydrolysis
- Oligosaccharides yield 3 to 10 monosaccharide units on hydrolysis.
Monosaccharides
- The general formula for monosaccharides is (CH2O)n, where n is the number of carbon atoms.
- Monosaccharides can be classified based on the number of carbon atoms they possess.
Disaccharides
- Lactose yields one molecule of glucose and one molecule of galactose on hydrolysis.
- Lactose is a ketodisaccharide.
Composition of Carbohydrates
- Carbohydrates are composed of carbon, hydrogen, and oxygen atoms.
Hydrolysis of Carbohydrates
- Maltose yields two molecules of glucose on hydrolysis.
- Monosaccharides are the simplest form of carbohydrates and cannot be hydrolyzed further into simpler forms.
