Concept explainers
Interpretation: To identify the type of reaction that is involved in the digestion of carbohydrates.
Concept introduction: Carbohydrates are the
Carbohydrates are classified as monosaccharide, disaccharide, oligosaccharide, and polysaccharide. Monosaccharides are the simplest carbohydrate units which cannot be hydrolyzed further to give the smallest units. Disaccharides contain two monosaccharide units. Oligosaccharides contain 3 to 10 monosaccharide units. Polysaccharides are carbohydrates that contain many carbohydrate units that vary from 100 to 50,000 monosaccharide units.
Digestion is defined as the biochemical process by which the food molecules are broken down into small chemical units through hydrolysis and these simpler chemical units are used by cells present in the body for their

- O Macmillan Learning Chemistry: Fundamentals and Principles Davidson presented by Macmillan Learning Poly(ethylene terephthalate), known as PET or industrially as Dacron, is a polyester synthesized through a condensation reaction between two bifunctional monomers. The monomers, ethylene glycol and terepthalic acid, are given. Add bonds and remove atoms as necessary to show the structure of a two repeat unit portion of a longer polymer chain of PET. You may need to zoom out to see the complete structure of all four monomer units.
