Question

what is dehydration synthesis?????? ​

Answer 1

$\huge \underline \mathfrak {Answer}$

⚫ Dehydration synthesis is a reaction where two smaller molecules are joined chemically by removing elements from each of these molecules.

⚫ On the basis of the structure of hydrocarbons, organic compounds can be further classified as aliphatic and aromatic compounds.

Answer 2

Answer:

⇒Dehydration synthesis refers to the formation of larger molecules from smaller reactants, accompanied by the loss of a water molecule. Many reactions involving dehydration synthesis are associated with the formation of biological polymers where the addition of each monomer is accompanied by the elimination of one molecule of water.

One common dehydration reaction involving a simple molecule is the formation of symmetric either from alcohol condensation. This is a reaction catalyzed by the presence of an acid and therefore occurs at a pH < 7.
