What is the chemical composition of sugar?
Table sugar is made of sucrose (C12H22O11) crystals. However, scientifically the word "sugar" is used for any mono- or di-saccharide. Sugar added in food is called sucrose. Sugar naturally found in fruit is called fructose.
Chemical structure of sugar is?
Sugar = Sucrose = C12(H2O)11 or C12H22O11 The general category of "sugar molecules" contains two divisions: sugars made of five carbon rings and sugars made of six carbon rings. Then there are different functional groups attached to the rings and the rings may be linked together to form disaccharides (such as sucrose) or polysaccharides.
What about the carbon atom makes it an ideal atom to form the backbone or skelton for most biological compounds?
Carbon atoms can bond together to form single, double, and triple bonds, long chains, branched chains, and rings, which enables carbon to form so many different compounds with hydrogen, oxygen, and other atoms like phosphorus, nitrogen, and sulfur.
What is one characteristic shared by all organic compounds?
Just remember NCHOPS.Which stands for; Nitrogen, Carbon, Hydrogen, Oxygen, Phosphorus, and Sulfur, All organic compounds usually have C,H, and O. Most also have nitrogen, phosphorus, and sulfur.
What are cyclic hydrocarbons give two example?
Cyclic hydrocarbons are organic compounds made of carbon and hydrogen. They are structured in rings, or circles. Two examples are cyclobutane and cyclopropane.

If a molecule contains carbon and at least one atom of hydrogen it is referred to as being?
It's a hydrocarbon--hydro for hydrogen, carbon for...well, carbon. If the molecule contains oxygen too, it's a carbohydrate--carbon with water attached. A single carbohydrate ring--a monosaccharide--always contains atoms in a 1:2:1 ratio--for every one atom of carbon, there are one of oxygen and two of hydrogen. Carbohydrates where there are multiple rings connected have two fewer hydrogen atoms than the 1:2:1 ratio would suggest--sucrose is C12H22O12, not C12H24O12. The two missing hydrogens are gone because there's got to be a bonding site for the second ring, and you get it by losing one hydrogen off each ring.
What are organic molecules and what do they contain?
it's a molecule of a kind normally found in living system.Organic molecules are usually composed of carbon atoms in rings or long chains, to which are attached other atoms of such elements as hydrogen, oxygen and nitrogen.

What percentage of carbohydrates protein lipids and acids are present in human body?
All of these have a carbon backbone with hydrogen and oxygen attached. Protein, which is made of amino acids, also has a nitrogen. Two of the amino acids have sulfur and two of them have a aromatic ring while one has a five member ring. Therefore they are all made of carbon, hydrogen, and oxygen. Some have nitrogen, sulfur, and aromatic rings. It is the amount of these elements, attachments, and spatial relationships that vary.

What is the molecular formula for dicyclohexyl?
C12H22: The formula for cyclohexane is C6H12, and in dicyclohexyl, two of the hydrogen atoms in two cyclohexane molecules are replaced by a carbon-carbon single bond that connects the two rings.
What are steroid hormones made from?
Steroids are lipids that include complex rings of carbon and hydrogen atoms. All steroid hormones are derived from cholesterol.
What is an aliphatic compound?
Aliphatic compounds are typically comprised of carbon and hydrogen atoms joined together straight chains, branched chains, or non-aromatic rings. They can also contain other elements such as oxygen, sulfur, chlorine, or nitrogen and are often flammable. Methane is the simplest aliphatic compound.

Can carbon atoms bond together in rings?
Yes. Carbon has many compounds and a number of allotropes where it forms rings.
