What to the large numbers of carbon-hydrogen bonds in lipids do?
Gabby454
They either:
a) make lipids polar.
b) store more energy than the carbon-oxygen bonds in other organic compounds.
c) allow lipids to dissolve water.
d) are found in the carboxyl group at the end of the lipid.
The Answer is: B- Store more energy than the carbon-oxygen bonds in other organic compounds.

∙ 14y agoThe large numbers of carbon-hydrogen bonds in lipids (which, is a good thing to remember, is a much higher ratio than the 1:2:1 of carbohydrates) store more energy than the carbon-oxygen bonds in other organic compounds

∙ 14y agoum,yeah there are many of those bonds compared to carbohydrates.

One reason that carbon atoms form large numbers of compounds is that a carbon atom forms?
One reason that carbon atoms can form large numbers of compounds is that a carbon atom forms four bonds in its compounds.
Why is it important for hydrogen bonds to be weak bonds instead of strong bonds?
"Individual hydrogen bonds are weak and easily broken; however, they occur in very large numbers in water and in organic polymers, creating a major force in combination. Hydrogen bonds are also responsible for zipping together the DNA double helix." -lumenlearning
What are organic compounds that store and release large amounts of energy?
Lipids
What organic compound is used to store large amounts of energy?
Lipids
Are a large and varied groups of molecules that are usually not soluble in water?
lipids
Carbohydrates and lipids are very large organic molecules Which two bonds do you expect to find most in these molecules?
ANSWER: nonpolar cavalent bonds and polar covalent bonds
Carbohydrates and lipids are very large organic molecules Which two bonds do you expect to find most in these molecules which are structural components of organisms?
carbohydrates are linked together by glycosidic linkage bond. Lipids are linked/bonded together by ester linkage bond.
Which holds large numbers of different molecules together?
Intermolecular force holds large numbers of different molecules together.
What are lipids of large molecules?
Lipids are fats, or to be technical, they are non-polar organic molecules. They do form large molecules but they do not polymerize.
What the symbol for lipids?
Lipids are are large group of chemicals. There are many symbols for the the various molecules. I can't recall a symbol for the lipids as a group.
What type of biomolecule is a lipid?
Lipids are a class of chemical compounds, all lipids are compounds not all compounds are lipids. Chocolate chip is class of cookies, not all cookies are chocolate chip. lipids are "fats" and "oils" they are triglycerides.
One reason that carbon atoms form large numbers of compounds is that a carbon atom forms?
One reason that carbon atoms can form large numbers of compounds is that a carbon atom forms four bonds in its compounds.
How much energy do lipids release?
Lipids, as compared with carbohydrates, are much more reduced (i.e., there are many more C-H bonds and far fewer C-OH or C=O bonds).Because of this greater degree of reduction, lipids store more energy per gram than do carbohydrates (nine vs. four, respectively).

What is the polymeric of lipids?
lipids are a fat found in areas of the body with large size and width. An example would be my penis :)
What type of bonds do large biological molecules make?
Covalent Bonds form large biological molecules
Which food products that you tested contain large amounts of lipids?
Lipids are a class of organic compound that are fatty acids. Food products that have been tested to contain large amounts of lipids include margarine spreads, soups, fast food, and pre-packaged foods.
