Given two molecules both containing only carbon and hydrogen the one with a higher molecular mass must have?
must have more carbon or hydrogen atoms that make up the molecule.
Why can a compound containing carbon nitrogen and carbon oxygen single bonds can form coordinate covalent bonds with hydrogen but compounds containing only carbon hydrogen and carbon carb bonds cannot?
carbohydrates
What molecule only contains carbon and hydrogen?
Methane is one. Molecules that contain only carbon and hydrogen are called hydrocarbons.
Which carbohydrates are molecules?
Carbohydrates molecules are made of carbon, hydrogen, and oxygen. If it had only carbon and hydrogen (and no oxygen) it would be called a hydrocarbon.
Is butter covalent or ionic bond?
Butter is a type of oil made from saturated fat, which are made from hydrocarbon molecules. A hydrocarbon is a compound containing only carbon-carbon and carbon-hydrogen bonds. Both of those are covalent bonds.
Molecules consisting of only carbon and hydrogen are called?
A hydrocarbon with a double bond
Does lactose contain nitrogen?
No. Lactose is a sugar containing only carbon, hydrogen, and oxygen.
What is chain hydrocarbons?
A chain hydrocarbon has a long molecule containing only carbon and hydrogen.
What type of atoms do carbohydrates contain?
Carbohydrates fall into the general formula Cx(H2O)y, each molecule containing carbon, hydrogen, and oxygen atoms.
What molecules only have carbon and hydrogen?
hydrocarbons hydrocarbons is a good answer but they may also contain elements other than carbon and hydrogen such as nitrogen and oxygen
What is a molecule that contains only carbon and hydrogen?
Molecules that contain only carbon and hydrogen are called hydrocarbons. Some examples are methane, CH4, ethane, C2H6, and propane, C3H8.
How is the way in which carbon atoms bond to each important for the number of carbon-based compounds?
Hydrocarbons are molecules consisting of/containing only atoms of carbon and hydrogen. There are many different kinds of hydrocarbons based on different numbers of carbon atoms in the molecules and whether or not any of the carbons are connected by double bonds rather than single bonds.
