Fructose or fruit Sugar (also levulose or laevulose) is a 6-carbon polyhydroxyketone. It is an isomer of glucose, meaning both have the same molecular formula (C6H12O6), but they differ structurally. Glucose is an aldehyde i.s.o. ketone.
For structural formula cf. 'Related links'
The chemical formula for fructose is NOT C6H6.
Added: It is C6H12O6 , an isomer of glucose.
Fructose, C6H12O6, is a simple monosaccharide.
Fructose has the same chemical formula as glucose: C6H12O6.
Fructose is C6H12O6 It is an isomer of glucose.
Formula: C6H12O6
Formula: C6H12O6
C6h12o6
The molecular formula C12 H22 O11 is for DISCCHARIDES (sugars) -three different sugars - with different molecular structures, BUT ONLY ONE: molecular formula : 1. Lactose 2. Sucrose 3. Maltose The three sugars all have the same formula , but the structure represents the combination of two sugars - that is they are Discaccharide Type Sugars (dis,as two). to identify the formula -to a particular sugar we must know how it is structured as : LACTOSE= GLUCOSE + GALACTOSE FRUCTOSE = GLUCOSE + FRUCTOSE MALTOSE = GLUCOSE + GLUCOSE Sugar is Sugar by formula but not by structure.
Yes. Glucose is an isomer of fructose and vice versa. Both have the molecular formula C6H12O6. Isomers are compounds with the same number of different elements per molecule but differ in, for example, their structural formulae.
Yes. Three examples are the monosaccharides glucose, fructose, and galactose. They are called isomers.
a molecular formula
molecular formula :]-kyrstiann dynae :]
The molecular formula of fructose is C6H12O6
fructose has same molecular formula but different structural formula. but the amount of sweetness of fructose is much much greater than glucose or sucrose. so the fructose solution is the sweetest solution...
isomers
Fructose and Glucose are isomers of each other. That means that one part of the molecule is in a different location on the other molecule. Fructose and glucose have the same molecular formula and molecular weight.

through isomerization that happens in the liver. remember glucose and fructose have the same molecular formula. so it's just repositioning of OH elimination of ketone part of the fructose.
The actual chemical formula isn't different - both are C6H12O6. The only reason glucose and fructose are different is because the atoms are arranged differently. View the Related Links below to see the molecular arrangements of Fructose and Glucose.
Glucose and fructose have some things in common. The most common thing they have is that they are both simple sugars.
Fructose contens of the sugar which is a combination of Glucose+Fructose makes the things sweet.
Yes. Glucose and fructose are isomers, having the same molecular formula but different structural formulas. Because they have the same formula, the ratios of carbon, hydrogen, and oxygen atoms are the same for both glucose and fructose.
They would be called: ISOMERS.(Def; molecules or molecular compounds that are similar in that they have the same molecular formula, however have different arrangements of the atoms)For example; glucose and fructose
