No atoms are composed of lipids (atoms are made from electrons, protons and neutrons). Lipids are however composed of atoms.
A lipid is a compound, a molecule made up of atoms of Oxygen, Carbon and Hydrogen. Lipids are "fats".

∙ 11y agoLipids can actually contain many different atoms.
However, the most common are hydrogen and carbon.
Lipids are hydrophilic, containing mostly aliphatic and aromatic hydrocarbon structures.

Most lipids contain long chains of which two atoms?
carbon and hydrogen
What Lipids have more what then they do oxygen atoms?
Potatoes and apples
What are the three types of atoms that make up lipids?
"Lipids" is a very broad category of compounds which can contain far more than three different elements.
Combined atoms form what?
Well, they can form molecules. Molecules join together to form elements. Elements join together to form compounds.
What is the difference between polar lipids and non polar lipids?
Polar lipids form bilayers spontaneously in water while non-polar lipids face towards the "non-polar" side of the cell being non water-soluble.
What is the simplest form of a lipid?
Lipids are strands of hydrocarbons, H atoms covalently bonded to C atoms.
What atoms bond to form lipids?
Lipids are a type of fat found in living organisms, and consist of only Hydrogen, Carbon and Oxygen. Depending on the number of each of these atoms, will change what type of lipid is formed.
How many atoms in lipids?
56666767
What elements off the periodic are found in lipids?
There are few types of atoms that can be found in lipids. Oxygen, carbon, and hydrogen atoms are found in them, but they may also contain phosphate atoms.
What are blocks of lipids?
Carbon and hydrogen atoms
What three atoms made up lipids?
Lipids are made of carbon and hydrogen with a little oxygen.
What atoms do lipids and carbohydrates always contain?
they always contain glucose or atoms of sugar
What are lipids building blockes?
Carbon and hydrogen atoms
How are carbohydreates and lipids similair?
Carbohydrates and lipids are similair because they both contain chains of carbon atoms bonded to oxygen and hydrogen atoms and they are both nonpolar molecules.
Do animals store lipids in the form of oil while plants store lipids in the form of fat?
true or false animals store lipids in the form of oil while plants store lipids in the form of fats
What are lipids structures?
All the lipids are non-polar (they have not positive and negative ions) and are soluble only in non-polar compounds. They are insoluble in water because water is a polar solvant, but are soluble in organic solvents All lipids form the covalant bond, in which they share the electrons of their atoms. In covalent bonding, the electrons cannot be removed from its original shell due to the attraction between the electrons and nucleus, but it is bound to other atom too. and form the bond between these atoms.
What kinds of atoms are lipidsmostly made of?
Carbon and hydrogen atoms mostly make up lipids.
