HFCS stands for high fructose corn syrup. There are two main types of HFCS used in foods and beverages: HFCS-55 and HFCS-42. The numbers represent the amount of fructose in the product. HFCS-55 is composed of 55% fructose with the rest mainly glucose. HFCS-42 is 42% fructose with the rest mainly glucose. HFCS-55 is equally sweet as sugar and is used in sodas and other Carbonated Beverages as a replacement for sugar. HFCS-42 is slightly less sweet and is used in condiments, dairy products and baked goods. High fructose corn syrup has 4 calories per gram, which is the same as other carbohydrates and caloric sweeteners like sugar, honey, fruit juice concentrates, fructose, etc.

How do you get rid of cfcs?
By using HFCs ,that is , hydroflourocarbon.
What are compounds of HFC?
HFCs are hydrofluorocarbons, which contain hydrogen, fluorine, and carbon. They are considered to be contributors to greenhouse gases in the atmosphere.
Which refrigerant decomposes at altitudes causing very little chlorine to reach the stratospheric ozone layer- CFCs- HFCs- Ammonia or HCFCs?
CFC's
Are there any fluorocarbon refrigerant that cause no harm to stratospheric ozone?
No fluorocarbon refrigerants pose harm to the ozone layer. Only molecules with chlorine or bromine pose a hazard.
What type of gases are responsible for trapping the sun's heat in the earth's atmosphere?
The gases that trap the sun's heat in the earth's atmosphere are called "green house gases." Some gases that contribute to this phenomenon are water vapor, carbon dioxide, methane, nitrous oxide, chlorofluorocarbons (CFCs), and hydrofluourocarbons (HFCs). The National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) has a great website for investigating a more complete answer to this question. http://lwf.ncdc.noaa.gov/oa/climate/gases.html

Why are HFCs inappropriate for long-term replacement of CFCs?
They absorb infrared radiation
What are HFCs?
HFC's are Hydro fluorocarbons that are used as refrigerants. They are considered to be ozone destroyers.
How do you get rid of cfcs?
By using HFCs ,that is , hydroflourocarbon.
Why did your plants mold when watered with red bull?
Redbull, like most other soda's, contains loads of sugar in the form of high fructose corn syrup (HFCS). HFCS is an easy substrate to live on. It is even conducive to sustaining mold.
Why does bread contain high fructose corn syrup?
