How do you think the physical properties of carbon hydrogen and oxygen change when they combined to form sugar?

The physical properties are unchanged: the same melting or boiling point, resistivity,density etc.But these atoms are now bonded together.


Why don't equal masses of carbon and oxygen contain the same number of atoms?

The atoms are different sizes.


Is carbon and oxygen the same?

No. They are two different atoms with different amounts of electrons


Does atoms have the same properties as the element?

Atoms do have the same properties as long as stable form of its corresponding element is not a molecule. For example H1 (Hydrogen) which is a single atom has the same properties that of Hydrogen as it doesn't require to be in a molecular form to be stable. On the other hand O1 (Oxygen) doesn't have the same properties as Oxygen that we breathe as that Oxygen is actually O2 which is actually necessary for it to remain stable.


Is N and CO have same number of neutron electron and proton?

N2, the common divalent form of nitrogen, does have the same number of protons and electrons as carbon monoxide. If both nitrogen atoms are nitrogen-14, the carbon atom is carbon-12, and the oxygen atom is oxygen-16, diatomic nitrogen also has the same number of neutrons as CO. Contrary to the fact for atoms, however, molecules with the same numbers of protons, electrons, and neutrons do not always have the same chemical properties.


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.


Is carbon dioxide the same as carbon monoxide?

No it's not the same. Carbon monoxide is CO and carbon dioxide is CO2. Carbon monoxide comes out of car exhausts and is poisonous if breathed in. CO2 is much less dangerous, though it is also a health hazard if the concentration is high enough. There are two oxygens atoms attached to the carbon atom in carbon dioxide (thus the name). There is only one oxygen atom attached to the carbon atom.


How many atoms of each element are present in the CO2?

If you mean CO2 there are 3 atoms of two elements: 1 carbon atom and 2 oxygen atoms. If you really did mean Co2, that would be a diatomic molecule of cobalt containing 2 atoms of 1 element. However, no such molecule exists.


Do atoms of the same element differ in chemical properties?

No. Atoms of the same element have the same chemical properties.


A molecule of an organic compound has twice as many hydrogen atoms as carbon atoms and the same of oxygen atoms as carbon atoms The molecular mass of this compound is 120u What is the MolecularFormula?

A macromolecule made up of mainly carbon and hydrogen atoms that is primarily used for energy storage and in cell membranes.


Are the oxygen and carbon the same compound?

No, it is not. Carbon refers to the element C, with the atomic number 6. Carbon Dioxide refers to the compound formed when one carbon atom and two oxygen atoms are bonded together through covalent bonds. -- Carbon dioxide is a molecule consisting of 1 carbon atom and 2 oxygen atoms. --


What happens to oxygen to make carbon dioxide?

Two oxygen atoms hooking up with a lone carbon atom equals......carbon dioxide!!To be truthful, Oxygen is usually found as a diatomic element (O2), so when it goes though bonding with a non-metal (such as carbon), it becomes carbon dioxide, the di- indicating that in this covalent bond, there are two oxygen atoms. Nitrogen Dioxide forms in the same manner.
