7
New cards

Carbohydrates

  • The name “carbo” (carbon) “hydrate” (water is made of oxygen and hydrogen)

- can be written with the ration of 1:2:1

  • “simple sugar”/ monomer

  • Usually end in “-ose”


10
New cards

Aldose

  • C=O on the end of the molecule

- functional group - aldehyde


11
New cards

Ketose

  • R - (C = O) - R^1 in the middle

- can be made of 3,5,or 6 carbons

- functional group = ketone
