Right belackırine@gmail.com, let's go.
A dehydration reaction is a type of condensation reaction where two molecules combine to form a larger molecule, with the loss of a molecule of water.
For example, the formation of a disaccharide like maltose from two glucose molecules:
$$ \text{Glucose} + \text{Glucose} \rightarrow \text{Maltose} + \text{Water} $$
$$ \text{C}_6\text{H}_{12}\text{O}_6 + \text{C}_6\text{H}_{12}\text{O}_6 \rightarrow \text{C}_{12}\text{H}_{22}\text{O}_{11} + \text{H}_2\text{O} $$
