Both maltose and sucrose are disaccharides. Disaccharides are formed when two monosaccharides join through a process called dehydration synthesis. Maltose is made from two glucose units and sucrose is made from fructose and glucose. Both maltose and sucrose have the molecular formular: C12H22O11

Examples of disaccharides?
The two main categories of sugars are monosaccharides and disaccharides. Three common disaccharides are sucrose, maltose and lactose.
Differentiate between sucrose and maltose?
Sucrose is made by the glosidic linkage between glucose and fructose whereas maltose is made by the glycosidic linkage between two glucose molecules. the first figure is maltose and second is sucrose(courtesy google images)
Which is the largest sucrose glucose glycogen and maltose?
celluloste
What are the emperical formulas for maltose sucrose and lactose?
C12h22o11
Are sucrose maltose and lactose essential amino acids?
No, sucrose, maltose and lactose are sugars, not amino acids. They are all disaccharides, that is their molecules consist of two simple sugars joined together.
How do the molecules of sucrose and maltose differ?
Sucrose is glucose + fructose. Maltose is glucose + glucose.

What is a difference between maltose lactose and sucrose?
Maltose and Lactose are "Reducing Sugar's" in solution with Benedict's Reagent, while sucrose is not.
Are maltose and sucrose two examples of monosaccharides?
Maltose and sucrose are examples of disaccharides. Glucose, galactose, and fructose are all examples of monosaccharides.
Differentiate between sucrose and maltose?

How does the molecular formula from sucrose compare to maltose?
While they are both C12H22O11, Maltose is a Glucose bonded to a Glucose, while Sucrose is a Glucose bonded to Fructose.
Is maltose a non reducing sugar?
Maltose IS a reducing sugar, sucrose is a non reducing sugar
