Carbohydrates
  1. General
    1. Most carbs are polymers
      1. Large, complex molecules composed of long chains of many monomers joined together
      2. Condensation
        1. Forms glycosidic bond by the removeal of water
        2. Hydrolysis
          1. Breaks glycosidic bond by addition of hydrogen
