Good evening! Can somebody please help me!!
Apply balanced chemical equations (full or ionic) for such reactions. - provide balanced equations for:
Condensation
Hydrolysis
Addition

With regards to carbohydrates, lipids and proteins

Condensation you get by build up of ethers, esters or amids.
Hydrolysis is the other way around
Addition is in this context not known.

Condensation and hydrolysis applies to peptide, glycosydic and ester bonds (H2O is sideproduct).

About addition reaction, it is possible to some proteins:

Hgb + O2 ----> Hgb-O2

or

Hgb + CO ----> Hgb-CO

(Hgb - hemoglobine)
