There are many sugars. One that you are most familiar with is the type you put on your cereal or in your coffee. This is cane sugar or sucrose. Another is glucose and this one is smaller and is used by each of your cells to make energy. Lactose is a type of sugar found in milk.
Notice that they all end in -ose. These sugars are called organic molecules because they contain carbon. They are organic compounds made of carbon, hydrogen and oxygen in differing amounts. Salt (table type) is not organic but it is also a compound. It is made of two ions sodium and chloride. (NaCl).
What else can I help you with?
What is true about sugar and not salt?
Sugar is an organic compound and salt (sodium chloride) is an inorganic compound.
Is an ionic compound salt or sugar?
An ionic compound can be either salt or sugar. Table salt (sodium chloride) is a common example of an ionic compound that is a salt, while table sugar (sucrose) is a covalent compound. Both salt and sugar can consist of ions, but they have different chemical compositions and structures.
Which one is neutral compound of follows air water sugar salt?
which one is neutral compound of follow air water sugar salt
What compound was decomposed sugar or salt?
Sugar is easily decomposed by heating.
Are sugar and salts additives?
Salt is a mineral. Sugar is an organic compound (carbohydrate).
Is salt and sugar a compound a mixture or a element?
Mixture.
Which type of compound Is common salt and sugar an organic or inorganic compound?
Salt is made of sodium and chloride, hence the name sodiumchloride. It is called NaCl in technical terms. I don't know about sugar.
Can you give some examples of compound elements?
Salt,Sugar
When salt or sugar is dissolved in water why is salt an eletrolyte and sugar is not?
Sugar is a covalent compound and doesn't separate into ionic constituents in water. Salt is an ionic compound and the constituent ions in the solid are held in place by electrostatic attraction. In water, the ions of the salt dissociate and disperse into the sugar/water matrix. These dissociated ions then support electric current.
What is the difference between sugar and salt?
Salt and sugar have different chemical appearences and shapes. Their taste is also different!
What is more polar salt or sugar?
Salt is more polar than sugar because it is an ionic compound composed of positively charged sodium ions and negatively charged chloride ions. Sugar, on the other hand, is a covalent compound with less overall charge separation, resulting in lower polarity.
How can compounds be use in real life?
Sugar (table sugar) is an element that we use to make food sweet. Salt is also a compound, we use salt (table salt) for many things.
