Strictly speaking, there isn't one. Carbohydrates have the general formula Cx(H2O)y. Y may be equal to X, but it doesn't have to be (it usually will be for simple carbohydrates, but not for complex carbohydrates); the only ratio that's fixed is hydrogen to oxygen at 2:1.

What is the ratio of C H and o in carbohydrate?

What is the ratio of atoms in a carbohydrate?
All sugars are carbohydrates, with the general ratio Cx(H2O)y. There are thus 2 moles of H atoms to 1 mole of C atoms.
How does a number of H Atoms in a carbohydrate compared to the number of oxygen atoms?
It depends on how many hydrogens are there and how many oxygen atoms there are.
How does The ratio of H to O atoms in starch compare to the ratio in single sugars?

Which type of hybridization state is expected on each of the carbon atoms in the molecule H-CC-H?
Assuming you mean acetylene, H-C triple bond C-H, then each of the C is sp hybridized.
Whats the ratio of hydrogen to oxygen atoms in carbohydrate is?
2:1 is the ratio of hydrogen to oxygen atoms.

What is a carbohydrate in simple terms?
Its a biological molecule consisting of C, H & O atoms. They contain H & O in same ratio as water i.e. 2:1 and can be broken to release energy in to the body
What ratio are hydrogen and oxygen atoms in carbohydrates?
C : H : O = 1 : 2 : 1 thus CH2O is the simplest ratio formula
Is carbon contained in carbohydrate molecules?
This is actually the reason they are called Carbo(n)hydrates .... They usually contain C H and O atoms ...
What are the molecules of carbohydrate?
c h o
What is the ratio of H atoms to O atoms in water?
3 : 2
How does a number of H Atoms in a carbohydrate compared to the number of oxygen atoms?
It depends on how many hydrogens are there and how many oxygen atoms there are.
What is the structure of Lewis for the C2H5?
C2H5 (neutral- no overall charge) is a free radical. Its Lewis dot structure will be two horizontal C atoms covalently bonded. One C atom will be single bonded to three H atoms. The other C atom will be bonded to two H atoms and have one electron unpaired.
What is the Lewis dot structure of butane?
There are a two different forms of butane, depending on how the atoms are connected. All have 4 carbon and 10 hydrogen atoms, but one is a linear structure (called n-butane), another is branched once (called isobutane). See the Related Questions for how to draw the Lewis dot structure, but the atoms are connected as follows: n-butane: H3C-CH2-CH2-CH3 isobutane (CH3)3CH
What are Concerning carbohydrates?
They all contain C, O, H&The ratio H to C is fixed at 2:1
