Carbohydrates are compounds made of carbon, hydrogen, and oxygen. They are divided into three classes based on whether they undergo hydrolysis and how many molecules they form. Monosaccharides cannot be broken down further, disaccharides yield two to nine monosaccharide molecules, and polysaccharides yield many saccharide molecules. Monosaccharides and oligosaccharides are crystalline, water-soluble substances that taste sweet, while polysaccharides are amorphous and insoluble in water with no taste.

2. Carbohydrate are the
compounds of
carbon,hydrogen and oxygen
in carbohydrates hydrogen
and oxygen are present in
the ratio are 2:1 as in water
carbohydrates also called
hydrates of carbon.

3. Carbohydrates are
devided into three
manporaclasses depanding
upon weather or not they
undergo hydrolysis and if
they do on the number of
product formed.

4.  These are the simplest carbohydrate which
cannot be hydrolysed to smaller molecules.
(EXAMPLE)glucose and fructose.

6. These are the
carbohydrates which yield
two to nine monosaccharide
molecule hytrolysis.
(e.g) disaccharides-sucrose
,lactose
trisaccharides-
raffinose.

7. These are the carbohydrates
which yield many saccharides
on hytrolysis
The monosaccharides and
oligosaccharides are sweet
crystalline substances soluble
in water
(e.g)starch,cellulose.

8. MONO(OR)OLIGO SACCHARIDES POLY SACCARIDES
Crystalline solid
 Soluble in
water.
Sweet to taste
They are called
sugar
Glucose
Amorphous
Insoluble water
 tasteless
It is called not
sugar
Starch
