Sugar is really a generic term.
If your talking about table sugar which is sucrose- 1 molecule of fructose bounded to 1 molecule of glucose. So one molecule of sucrose is the dimer of 1molecule glucose and 1molecule fructose. The molecular formula of Sucrose is C12H22O11.
Watch what you are calling a sugar because there are disaccharides (2sugars like sucrose) and monosaccharides (single sugar like glucose).
Sugar is an example of a carbohydrate molecule, vegetable oil is an example of a lipid molecule, and alcohol is an example of an organic compound molecule.
Disaccharid
no, an example of a compound would be sugar (c6h12o6)
It means that the sugar in a molecule is deoxyribose.So, for example, deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA) means "the nucleic acid that has deoxyribose as the sugar component of every nucleotide in its molecule".
A molecule of water, a molecule of hydrogen, a molecule of oxygen, a molecule of sugar... Actually more substances come in form of molecules than in atomic form.
Table sugar consists of only 1 type of molecule.
1. A sugar molecule 2. A phosphate molecule 3. A nitrogen base
The numbers in a glycosidic linkage represent the carbon atoms involved in the bond formation. For example, in an alpha 1-6 linkage, carbon atom 1 of one sugar molecule is connected to carbon atom 6 of another sugar molecule.
One molecule of table sugar (sucrose) contains 11 oxygen atoms.
They are attached to a deoxyribose sugar.
It is a ribose sugar.
It is a ribose sugar.
