The organic molecule that undergoes glycolysis is the sugar glucose which contains 6 atoms of carbon per molecule.
If you're asking for the number of atoms, it would be 45. Chemical Formula: C12H22O11
A molecule of C12H22O11 contains 12 carbon atoms, 22 hydrogen atoms, and 11 oxygen atoms. This molecule represents a type of carbohydrate known as sucrose or table sugar.
Sugar is an organic molecule because it contains carbon atoms. More rigorously, it contains carbon-hydrogen bonds.
pentose sugar. egs: ribose
There are 22 atoms of hydrogen, 12 atoms of carbon, and 11 atoms of oxygen.
Yes, sugar like all organic compounds contains carbon. Table sugar or sucrose is C12H22O11, so each molecule contains 12 carbon atoms, 22 hydrogen atoms, and 11 oxygen atoms.
