This type of bond is formed when electrons are transferred (one atom donates an electron and the other atom accepts the electron)
What is an Ionic Bond?
400
This reaction occurs when you USE WATER to BREAK a BIG molecule into SMALLER molecules
What is Hydrolysis?
400
This macromolecule is made of Carbon, Hydrogen, and Oxygen, its monomers are called monosaccharides, which can form a disaccharide, a trisaccharide, or a polysaccharide, and are usually called names that end in -ose
What is a Carbohydrate?

When an acid donates a proton (also called H+) and a base accepts the proton (OH- usually accepts the proton), and results in a salt and water
What is Acid-Base Reaction?
500
