Carbohydrates are molecules with Carbon, Hydrogen, and Oxygen atoms.
What is the ration between hydrogen and oxygen atoms in carbohydrates and water?
the ratio in water is two hydrogen to 1 oxygen. In carbohydrates, the empirical formula is Cx(H2O)y where x=y=1 in monosaccharides.
What is the relationship of hydrogen to oxygen atoms in carbohydrates?
They have a 2:1 ratio
Compounds made up of carbon hydrogen and oxygen atoms?
carbohydrates
What characteristic do carbohydrates have concerning their hydrogen and oxygen atoms?
The hydrogen- oxygen ratio is 2:1, which is the same ratio in water.
How does the ratios of hydrogen to oxygen atoms compare in glucose and fructose?
The ratio of hydrogen atoms to oxygen atoms in a molecule of glucose or any other carbohydrate is two hydrogen atoms to one oxygen atom, the same as in water. This is why they are called carbohydrates. This is a fundamental property of carbohydrates.
How many of each elements are in carbohydrates?
six carbon atoms, 12 hydrogen atoms and six oxygen atoms.
All carbohydrates are made up of what?
Consist of carbon, oxygen and hydrogen atoms, normally with a hydrogen: oxygen atom ratio of 2 to 1. Carbohydrates are technically hydrates of carbon.
How many times larger in the number of hydrogen atoms than oxygen atoms in all carbohydrates?
2 times larger
What is the ratio of carbon hydrogen and oxygen atoms in carbohydrates?
It varies from one carbohydrate to another.
Are there any elements in glycerol that are not in carbohydrates?
There aren't any elements in glycerol that are not in carbohydrates. Glycerol has carbon, hydrogen and oxygen atoms, similar to that of carbohydrates.
