They are generally referred to as organic molecules. ----------------------------------------- More precisely hydrocarbons (literally means hydrogen-and-carbons). Organic molecules contain a wide variety of atoms in addition to H and C such as oxygen, sulfur, chlorine, phosphorus, etc.

What atoms are proteins made up of?
Proteins contain carbon, hydrogen, oxygen, nitrogen and sometimes sulfur or selenium.
What are carbon and oxygen atoms made up of?
These atoms are made of mostly molecules
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.
Which atoms form lipids?
No atoms are composed of lipids (atoms are made from electrons, protons and neutrons). Lipids are however composed of atoms. A lipid is a compound, a molecule made up of atoms of Oxygen, Carbon and Hydrogen. Lipids are "fats".
What elements make up the molecules of sugar?
Glucose is C6H12O6 which means it is made up of 6 carbons, 12 hydrogens and 6 oxygens. Sucrose is a molecule made from one glucose and one fructose, fructose has the same components as glucose but they are arranged in a different order. So, elements in sugar are carbon, hydrogen, and oxygen.
Large molecules made of carbon and hydrogen atoms?
This type of molecule is called macromolecule.
What is carbonhydrate made of?
Molecules containing carbon, hydrogen and oxygen atoms
A molecule of pentane is made of 5 carbon atoms and 12 hydrogen atoms. A collection of pentane molecules has 3.01 x 1024 carbon atoms. How many hydrogen atoms are in the collection?
7,224.10e24. hydrogen atoms
How many hydrogen and carbon atoms are made in 5 molecules of carbon dioxide?
5 molecules of carbon dioxide will contain 5 carbon atoms (1 per molecule) and no hydrogen atoms as carbon dioxide contains only carbon and oxygen. The 5 molecules will contain a total of 10 oxygen atoms (2 per molecule).
What are polyethylene molecules made of?
Polyethylene is a polymer of ethylene and it has carbon and hydrogen atoms.
What are polyethene molecules made of?
Polyethylene is a polymer of ethylene and it has carbon and hydrogen atoms.
What do nonpolars have?
Nonpolar molecules have no net dipoles. The most common nonpolar molecules are hydrocarbons. These are molecules made entirely of carbon and hydrogen atoms.
Why are proteins considered organically molecules?
They contain many carbon atoms
What atoms are proteins made up of?
Proteins contain carbon, hydrogen, oxygen, nitrogen and sometimes sulfur or selenium.
Why are organic compounds considered to be organic?
Organic molecules are molecules that contain hydrogen and carbon. Macromolecules are considered to be organic compounds because they are made up of many carbon and hydrogen atoms put together.
What do nonpolar molecule have?
Nonpolar molecules have no net dipoles. The most common nonpolar molecules are hydrocarbons. These are molecules made entirely of carbon and hydrogen atoms.
What is made out of hydrogen?
i was looking at my brother's homework and it asked that question and he left it blank. can u list some organic molecules? there is a multitude of molecules that contain hydrogen and carbon and any molecule containing this combination is said to be organic. molecules not containing carbon and hydrogen are called inorganic.
