How did the carbon, hydrogen and oxygen atoms in glucose and fructose combine to form sucrose? include in your description which atoms bonded together from fructose and glucose to form sucrose and which atoms reformed to create a water molecule.

The first carbon of glucose is bonded with the second carbon of fructose through dehydration synthesis

Sucrose is a disaccharide composed of glucose and fructose. This means the two saccharides need to form a link to create sucrose. This link is characterized by:

This means an H2O molecule is released and the oxygen remaining acts as a bridge between glucose and fructose.

A glycosidic linkage connects the carbon 1 in glucose and carbon 2 in fructose.

Also OH is removed from carbon 2 of fructose and carbon 1 of glucose to release water

Explanation:

Disaccharides such as Sucrose are formed by the combination of two or more monosaccharide.

A sucrose is formed when glucose (C6H12O6) combines with another monomer named fructose (C6H12O6) though a dehydration process where water is released and a glycosidic bond (-- O--) is formed

Both these monosaccharides have numbering on their carbon atoms starting from the terminal carbon closest to the carbonyl group. A glycosidic linkage connects the carbon 1 in glucose and carbon 2 in fructose.

Also OH is removed from carbon 2 of fructose and carbon 1 of glucose to release water
