Q

Dehydration Synthesis (Condensation Synthesis)

A

how you get disaccharides and polysaccharides.

Two monomers bond together, and then water is released, (and then a covalent bond is formed)

Q

Polymer

A

Chain of monomers

18
Q

Lipids

A

all lipids are hydrophobic (afraid of water)

19
Q

Examples of lipids

A

fat, oil, wax, cholesterol, and steroids

20
Q

Saturated Fats

A

solid (at room temperature)

21
Q

Unsaturated Fats

A

liquid (at room temperature)

22
Q

Lipid test Reagent

A

Sudan IV (four) dye

Bright Red

23
Q

Lipid Emulsifier

A

Detergent

24
Q

Benedict’s Test

A

testing to see if a solution contains “simple sugar” (reducing sugars)

Add reagent.
You also have to add third factor (heat) to drive the reaction.

You’ll get a color change if the simple sugar (Reducing sugars) are there

25
Q

Reducing Sugars Reagent

A

Benedict’s Reagent

26
Q

Reducing Sugars Positive Outcome coloratin

A

+++ (large amount) burnt orange
++ (medium amount) yellow
+ (small amount) green

27
Q

Starch Test Reagent

A

Iodine

28
Q

Starch Test Positive Outcome coloration

A

Black

29
Q

Protein Test Reagent

A

Biuret

30
Q

Protein Test positive outcome coloration

A

Purple

bright purple=large amount

31
Q

Protein test/ Biuret looking for bonds (peptide bonds) between amino acids to indicate there is an

A

entire molecule of amino acids present.

32
Q

Protein test negative coloration

A

very light blue

33
Q

Starch test negative coloration

A

orange/brown

34
Q

Reducing sugars test negative coloration

A

blue

35
Q

Water was used in all three sections of the lab as a

A

negative control

because water has no protein or sugar

36
Q

Example of a monosaccharide

A

glucose

37
Q

Example of a disaccharide

A

sucrose

38
Q

Example of a polysaccharide

A

starch

39
Q

Protein molecules have special bonds called

A

peptide bonds

40
Q

Monosaccharides bond together in a process called

A

dehydration synthesis to make disaccharides and polysaccharides. During this process water is lost to create a covalent bond between monosaccharides.
