| 128504638 | organic | compounds that contain carbon and hydrogen together; complex molecules organized around skeletons of carbon atoms arranged in rings or chains |  |
| 128504639 | inorganic | compounds that do NOT contain carbon and hydrogen together |  |
| 128512057 | molecular formula | a chemical formula that shows the number and kinds of atoms in a molecule, but not the arrangement of the atoms. |  |
| 128512058 | empirical formula | a chemical formula showing the ratio of elements in a compound rather than the total number of atoms | |
| 128512059 | structural formula | a chemical formula that shows the arrangement of atoms in a molecule or a polyatomic ion; each dash between a pair of atoms indicates a pair of shared electrons | |
| 128858606 | dehydration synthesis | A chemical reaction in which two molecules covalently bond to each other with the removal of a water molecule; monosaccharides can be joined this way to produce disaccharides or polysaccharides. | |
| 128858607 | hydrolysis | Breaking down complex molecules by the chemical addition of water. (For example: polysaccharides can be broken into disaccharides or monosaccharides by this method. | |
| 128858608 | polymer | A large chemical compound composed of smaller repeating units (monomers). (For example, polysaccharides are large carbohydrate molecules formed from chains of mono- and disaccharides). | |
