2. PHYSICAL PROPERTIES OF
CARBOHYDRATES

3. PHYSICAL PROPERTIES
Description:-
Monosacharides:-
Monosacharides also referred to as simple sugars, are the simplest form of sugar
and the most basic units of carbohydrates.
Discharides:-
A disaccharide also known as double sugar or bivose, is the sugar formed when
two monosaccharides are joined together by glycosidic bonds.
Polysacharides:-
Polysaccharides are polymeric carbohydrate molecules composed of long chains of
monosaccharide units bounded together by glycosidic bonds.

4. CLASSIFICATION:-
Monosacharides:-
Monosaccharides can be classified by the number of carbon atoms they contain for
example triose (3), tetrose (4), pentose (5), hexose (6), heptose (7) and so on.
Discarides:-
Not further classified into different types.
Polysacharides:-
Homo-polysaccharides. Hetero-polysaccharide.

5. STATE:-
Monosacharides:-
Crystalline compound.
Disacharides:-
Crystalline compounds.
Polysacharides:-
Amphorous compounds.

7. TASTE
Monosacharides:-
Have a sweet taste.
Disacharides:-
Have a Sweet Taste.
Polysacharides:-

8. REDUCING PROPERTY
Monosacharides:-
Reducing Sugars.
Disacharides:--
Reducing sugars while others are non-reducing sugars.

12. MOLECULAR WEIGHT
Monosacharies:-
Monosaccharides have a relatively lower molecular weight when
compared to disaccharides and polysaccharides.
Disacharies:-
Disaccharides have a relatively larger molecular weight when compared
to monosaccharides.
Polysacharies:-
Polysaccharides have a relatively larger molecular weight when
compared to disaccharides.

13. SIZE OF PARTICLES

Pass through membrane.
Disacharides:-
Pass through membrane.
Polysacharides:-
Do not pass through membrane.
