Note that any basic carbohydrate structure would dehydrate at the central O bond, also called a glycosidic center. I think if you added HCl it would form carbon, but it matters how much HCl is added. If it's a large volume, it's not possible.

I'm not very familar w/ the structure of Dextrose, but I think it's just the D-glucose (I'm pretty sure it's D-glucose, since normal glucose is L-glucose). In any case, it's a carbohydrate as well and would occur with the same dehydration synthesis @ the glycosidic center.

Macgyver is the friggin' man! I loved the episode on Family Guy, where he took the paper clip and rubber band and it richocheted into his eye...friggin' hillarious!




Boy, there's always soemone like you around to make the rest of society doubt their own intellect! Luckily i'm not one of them!
