Carbon is an element. Sucrose, a sugar, is a compound ( a combination of elements ). Sucrose is composed of carbon, hydrogen and oxygen. Pure carbon is found in two forms, graphite (pencil lead) and diamond. Carbon and sucrose are very different in properties except for the fact that both can be burned in the presence of oxygen to yield CO2 (and water in the case of sucrose).

Why cant you rely on any single test or property when you are trying to identify a mineral?
Different minerals can share many, but not all, mineral characteristics. Characteristics would include hardness, streak color, crystal shape, reactions to acids, flame tests, density, and others.
180 g of glucose and 342 g of sucrose have same number of molecules but different number of atoms. Explain?
They are different compounds with different molecules:- the chemical formula of glucose is C6H12O6- the chemical formula of sucrose is C12H22O11
Elements in the same family have similar what?
Elements in the same family-assuming family means classifications such as non-metals, metals-have similar properties.
Can things with volume share the same space at the same time?
No they can not because just like two computers cant share the same space at the same time because they cant go though each other can they?
What is the molecular formula of sugar?
It depends on the kind of sugar you are talking about. If you are talking about glucose or fructose, the molecular formula is C6H12O6 (glucose and fructose only differ in structure but have the same formula). Sucrose, which is common table sugar, has the molecular formula C12H22O11. Scientifically, the word "sugar" is used for any mono- or di-saccharide. Sugar added in food is called sucrose. Sugar naturally found in fruit is called fructose.
A 20.0 g sample of sucrose contains 8.4 g of carbon what is the mass percentage of carbon sucrose?
they are the same
What gas has the same properties as CO2?
No other gas has exactly the same properties as carbon dioxide.
Name the smallest part of carbon with the same properties?
A carbon atom.
Would a sample of the compound carbon dioxide in your school and another sample of carbon dioxide in Australia have the same composition and properties?
Yes they wouldn't have the same composition but not properties!
Is silicon an allotrope of carbon?
No silicon is an element in the same group as carbon, it has similar chemical properties but it is not carbon.
Do oxygen atoms have the same properties as carbon atoms?
nope
What chararistics do elements share in the same vertical column?
Generally speaking, they share chemical properties, including number of valence electrons. Occasionally, they share physical properties as well, but that is not always the case.
What elements in the same group and family have?
in the same group( family) have the same electronic configurationhttp://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Group_(periodic_table)
What gas has the same chemical properties as dry ice?
Carbon Dioxide
What is the smallest part of an carbon with all the same properties is called?
An atom.
Will potassium share more properties with calcium or sodium?
potassiumwill share more properties with sodium because both are Alkali metals and have same number of valence electrons.
How are carbon-12 and carbon-14 atoms the same?
They have same atomic number, 6 that means same number of protons and electrons so have the same chemical properties.
