Glycerol, which might be called a "sugar alcohol" (though it's not usually called a "simple sugar"; it's a little too simple to be a simple sugar) and 3 fatty acids (or, more properly chemically, carboxylic acids).
A simple fat molecule is composed of one glycerol molecule, which is a simple sugar, and three fatty acid chains, which are chains of carbon and hydrogen with a carboxyl group at one end.
The molecule with only a carboxyl group is called formic acid, with the formula HCOOH. It consists of a carboxyl group, COOH, where the hydrogen atom is attached to the carbon and the hydroxyl group (-OH) is attached to the same carbon.
nucleic acid
Yes, an amino acid is an organic molecule. It is composed of a central carbon atom bonded to an amino group, a carboxyl group, a hydrogen atom, and a side chain (R group) that differs among different amino acids.
An amino group and an R group
No. A carboxyl group is made up off carbon, oxygen, and hydrogen.
A water molecule is composed of elements hydrogen and oxygen. H2O Carbon dioxide is composed of carbon and oxygen. CO2 Methane, ethane, propane, butane and many others are composed of just carbon and hydrogen.
Methane, which is composed of one carbon atom and four hydrogen atoms, is the smallest organic molecule.
Sucrose is a disaccharide made up of one molecule of glucose and one of fructose; the elements are carbon, hydrogen & oxygen.
No, hydrogen chloride is not considered an organic molecule. It is a simple inorganic compound composed of hydrogen and chlorine atoms. Organic molecules are generally composed of carbon atoms bonded to hydrogen and possibly other elements like oxygen, nitrogen, or sulfur.
Yes, pyruvate is a chiral molecule. It has three carbon atoms, and the central carbon is chiral due to its four different substituents: a carboxyl group, a carbonyl group, a methyl group, and a hydrogen atom.
Yes, (C3H8), 3 atoms of carbon and 8 atoms of hydrogen in each molecule of propane.
