Is there nitrogen in sucrose?

No. Sucrose contains carbon, hydrogen, and oxygen.


What element is in white sugar?

carbon chains--sucrose is glucose and fructose, about 50/50.


A 20.0 g sample of sucrose contains 8.4 g of carbon what is the mass percentage of carbon sucrose?

The mass percentage of carbon in sucrose can be calculated by dividing the mass of carbon by the total mass of sucrose and then multiplying by 100. In this case, the mass percentage of carbon in sucrose would be (8.4 g / 20.0 g) x 100 = 42%.


How many moles of C atoms are in 1 mol of sucrose?

1 mole of sucrose cotains 12 multiply by 6.023 exponent 23 atoms.


How many element sucrose have?

Sucrose is made of 3 elements: Carbon, Oxygen, and Hydrogen.


Is carbon in sugar?

Yes, sugar like all organic compounds contains carbon. Table sugar or sucrose is C12H22O11, so each molecule contains 12 carbon atoms, 22 hydrogen atoms, and 11 oxygen atoms.


How do you know that sucrose conatains carbon?

Sucrose is a polymer of glucose. That is, it is a combination of glucose molecules. The chemical formula for glucose is C6H12O6 [6 Carbons, 12 Hydrogens, and 6 Oxygens], so since sucrose is made of glucose, it must contain Carbon.


A molecule of C12H22O11 contains?

12 atoms of carbon, 22 atoms of hydrogen, and 11 atoms of oxygen. It is sucrose, or table sugar.


What is the oxidation number of carbon in sucrose?

The oxidation number of carbon in sucrose is +4. In sucrose (C12H22O11), the carbon atoms are bonded to oxygen atoms through double bonds, causing the oxidation state of carbon to be +4.


Is sucrose a compound or a element?

Sucrose is not an element itself, but it is made up of a mixture of elements. Sucrose is actually a compound and is, what we know, table sugar.


Does carbon and sucrose share the same properties?

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).


How many grams of carbon are in 100.0g of sucrose?

Well, honey, sucrose is made up of carbon, hydrogen, and oxygen. Carbon makes up about 40% of the molecular weight of sucrose, so in 100.0g of sucrose, you'd have about 40.0g of carbon. Just remember, sugar might be sweet, but chemistry sure ain't.
